$100,000 Lucky Lotteries Win Stops Northbridge Man In His Tracks
$6,000 Welcome Bonus
A morning drive turned into a $100,000 ride for a Northbridge man who pulled onto the side of the road to discover his Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot windfall.
The North Shore resident scored the guaranteed 1st Prize of $100,000 in Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw 10498, drawn Friday 22 October 2021.
So far in 2021, there have been 17 Lucky Lotteries major prize winning entries in the Western Sydney and Blue Mountains region collectively worth more than $2.10 million.
The stoked bloke was oblivious to his good fortune and was on his way to his father’s house when an official from The Lott called to reveal the thrilling news.
“Is this a hoax? Wow!” he laughed.
“I’m in a state of shock and I’m a bit surprised.
“I’m driving right now to see my father; I have to pull over! He will be over the moon when I let him know!
“I purchase lottery tickets quite regularly. I even had a go at the $60 million Powerball draw last night. I guess this win makes up for not winning last night!
“This is amazing news. You’ve made my day.”
With $100,000 about to hit his bank account, the elated man said he was too mind-boggled to make any concrete plans.
“I seriously have no clue! I’m too shocked to think right now,” he said.
“I’d like to celebrate the win with my sister. We’re out of lockdown now as well! It’s perfect timing.”

Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot and Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot are raffle-style games, which means there is a set number of tickets in each draw. As each ticket number is unique there is no sharing of prizes.
Each game has two draws – one that determines the winning numbers and one that determines the jackpot number. If the jackpot number matches one of the winning numbers, then the Jackpot Prize is won. If the jackpot number does not match one of the winning numbers, the Jackpot Prize will climb for the next draw.
Tickets can be purchased at any licenced lottery outlet, online from thelott.com or via The Lott mobile app.
