A LUCKY Kerry family celebrated the start of 2019 as lottery millionaires as they travelled to National Lottery headquarters in Dublin to collect a cheque for €1 million after they won the top prize of the Daily Million game on Friday, December 28.

The winning ticket was printed at the Applegreen Service Station on Manor Road in Tralee. What made their €1 million windfall even more incredible was that they admitted to never having played the Daily Million game previously until they won a free lottery ticket as a prize in a previous Lotto draw.

“It’s just so hard to believe – there are so many incredible coincidences which have led us to this €1 million win,” said the winning husband.

“To be honest, I had never played the Daily Million game before so I didn’t really know too much about it. I was checking a Lotto ticket from a previous draw and I had two numbers and the bonus ball and unbelievably the prize was a Quick Pick ticket for the Daily Million draw – little did I know it would turn out to be one million,” he said.

The delighted Kerry husband added: “We didn’t give the ticket a second thought until we checked the results of the EuroMillions draw last Friday night. Once we realised that we hadn’t won the €120 million jackpot, I casually swiped the Daily Million ticket on my phone and up this message popped – we’d just realised we had won a million euros. It was just unbelievable.”

The lucky Kerry family are sensibly planning to take some time out before they make any major plans for their €1 million prize but they plan to start the New Year with a clean slate and top of their priorities is to clear their mortgage and pay off all of their bills.
