Fort McMurray newcomer wins $100K Scratch & Win prize!

Kenneth Lockyer won $100,000 on a $5 RUBY MINE 5X Scratch & Win ticket! 

The Fort McMurray winner said he scratched the ticket and did a double take at the win amount. 

“I thought I had won $100,” he laughed. “But then I caught a glimpse of a few more zeroes and realized it was much more than that!” 

Lockyer was excited to show his wife, who also required a good second look before she believed what she was seeing.  

“Once I showed her the slip and she knew it was real, she was over the moon,” he said. 

“We just moved here a few months ago so this couldn’t have come at a better time!” he continued. “It’s just going into the bank as a bit of a nest egg and to go towards a few things we need.” 

Lockyer purchased his winning $5 RUBY MINE 5X Scratch & Win ticket from Circle K at 100 Real Martin Drive in Fort McMurray.

Myth: If the odds are 1 in 4 on a SCRATCH & WIN and you buy four tickets, I'm guaranteed a win.

Fact: These are overall odds (1 in 4). So you could buy four tickets and win on all four, or win on none, or wind up somewhere between the two. There’s no connection between individual tickets.
