$1M Battleford LOTTO MAX winner’s family members wouldn’t pick up the phone!

Jennifer Crain was excited to share some big news: she had just found out she won $1 million on the LOTTO MAX August 16 draw.

“I checked [the ticket] and was in shock and just started calling all my family members,” she laughed. “I called four people that morning and no one would answer!”

Her husband was at work at the time.

“I could hear my phone going off over and over again and I finally answered and said, ‘Why are calling me so much? Do you miss me or something?’” her husband laughed.

“She said, ‘No, I won $1 million!’ I said, ‘Get out of here!’”

The Battleford local said her plan with the money is to enjoy it with family.

“We’re looking at buying a trailer and taking a trip,” she said. “We have a plan to also go to Mexico and Vegas— [my husband has] never been to Vegas!”

“The excitement and overwhelming feeling is exactly what you’d expect,” Crain added.

Jennifer Crain purchased her winning LOTTO MAX ticket from Battleford Petro Canada located 352 22nd St. in Battleford. She won her prize by matching the selection for a MAXMILLIONS draw on August 16: 2, 6, 10, 15, 20, 44, 48.
