When Christmas arrived, Hamar’s Lotto machine was ready to draw seven numbers. The numbers drawn made two people Lotto millionaires. They got seven in a row and then shared the Lotto pot. Each of them won exactly NOK 8,266,660.
NOK 8.2 million under the Christmas tree
The two lucky players with seven straights are a 48-year-old woman from Harstad and a man from Trøndelag.
The lucky man from Harstad celebrated Christmas Eve with his children and grandchildren, but just before 8pm, the celebration was interrupted by a call from Norsk Tipping. Before Norsk Tipping could reveal why we called her, the woman started crying.
– I think I’m fainting, sobs.
– Congratulations, you have become a Lotto millionaire! Won NOK 8.2 million.
– Fuck the cat, the woman exclaims, followed by laughter, tears and applause from the family in the living room.
– Now I will help all the children with the purchase of a house. I will also buy a house. That was a wonderful message, she rejoices.
– I can afford a taxi
The woman had actually planned to go home quite early on Saturday night, but the visit probably took longer than expected.
– We may have to open the champagne. Now I can actually afford a taxi home, jokes the recent Lotto millionaire.
Bought the coupon through the Norsk Tipping app.
