Michael (Mike) Prusila of Winchester is celebrating after winning $500,000 with THE BIGGER SPIN INSTANT game (Game #3153).
Mike, a retired skilled trades worker, is an occasional lottery player who enjoys games like LOTTO MAX, LOTTO 6/49 and of course, THE BIGGER SPIN. “I stopped at the gas station to run an errand and picked up the ticket,” he shared while visiting the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to spin the big wheel. “When I took the ticket in to play my SPIN prize, I expected to win $20. I didn’t even see it land on ‘The Big Spin’. It happened so fast! I was pleasantly surprised to learn I was going to get to spin the big wheel.”
The day the big event arrived; Mike was ready to finally see what his prize would be. “The wheel wasn’t as heavy as I expected it to be. Watching it spin, I was focused on the moment. When it came to a stop, it was nice to know how much I had won. I came here hoping to go home with $500,000 and that is exactly what happened,” he smiled.
“It’s surreal. I am happy and I feel good. I would love to do this again,” he laughed. “I enjoy this game and it has been good to me.”
Mike plans to buy his wife a new car and travel, while investing the rest of his windfall.
