Westmeath Man Is Over €146k Richer After Winning The Lotto

It was bought at The Grove Service Station in Athlone.

A Westmeath man collected over €146 after winning the Lotto. 

He claimed from the Lotto Match 5 + Bonus draw on May 2 after discovering his winning ticket almost a week later at The Grove Service Station in Athlone.

The Midlands winner says he initially could not understand why staff printed a 'Contact the National Lottery' slip instead of revealing his prize amount, as the ticket had been sitting casually on his mantelpiece ever since.

Tonight’s EuroMillions jackpot is now heading for an estimated €105 million, while Saturday’s Lotto jackpot rolls towards an estimated €3.8 million.
