DÉJÀ VU, AS SECOND LOWER MAINLAND REALTOR WINS 6/49 JACKPOT
July 31, 2008
Richmond, BC – As Yankee legend Yogi Bera famously said, "It's like déjà vu all over again."
Another Lower Mainland realtor has won the Lotto 6/49 jackpot.
Port Moody resident Angela Mead, who works for Coldwell Banker in Burnaby, became an instant winner when her lucky numbers were drawn online.
"I was so stunned when I read 'Congratulations, you have won!' that I had to take a picture of my computer screen," said Mead, who is now $25,649 richer.
"I then broke into a 6/49 happy dance," laughed the 54-year-old mother of two. "It wasn't pretty, but I did it!"
Mead joins 24-year-old Peter Dushop as the second Lower Mainland realtor this week to collect a Lotto 6/49 prize.
Dushop, who works for Re/Max in Maple Ridge, famously waited almost a year to collect his $3.6 million prize.
Like Dushop, Mead plans to use some of her winnings to take a vacation.
Lotto 6/49 is the nationwide lottery game drawn on Wednesdays and Saturdays after 6 p.m. (PST). This Saturday's jackpot is an estimated $36 million.
