$100K WESTERN MAX win in Medicine Hat!

William Whaley is $100,000 richer after winning big on WESTERN MAX… and he’s still counting the zeroes to be sure! 

The Medicine Hat local checked the ticket himself in-store and was stunned to see the prize amount. 

“I was shocked,” he said. “There were a lot of zeroes, so I had to go back and count them again!” 

Whaley is getting over the initial shock of his win and said he’s still planning how exactly he wants to enjoy his winnings. 

“I’m honestly not too sure yet,” he said. “I’m going to let it sit in my account for a while.” 

“It just feels really good to win,” he smiled. 

Whaley purchased his winning WESTERN MAX ticket from Shell at 677 Division Avenue S in Medicine Hat. He won his prize by matching six of seven numbers plus the bonus selected in the WESTERN MAX draw on August 8: 2, 21, 25, 33, 35, 42, 48, and Bonus 12.
