Lottery winner's 'random' numbers came from drawing a picture
Published in Weird News
(UPI) An Australian woman who won a lottery jackpot worth more than $1 million said she used an unusual method to choose her numbers: drawing a picture.
The Waterways, Victoria, woman told The Lott officials she buys two tickets each week for the TattsLotto drawing.
"I play every week. I usually buy two separate entries. One entry I use numbers of family birthdays and things like that, but on the second entry, I use random numbers," the woman said. I choose the numbers by drawing a picture or a pattern on the coupon.
The picture she drew on her betting slip for Saturday's drawing ended up giving her the winnings numbers, earning a jackpot worth $1,071,092.81.
The winner said she and her husband are already making plans for their winnings.
"We are definitely going to buy a house," she said. We've only ever been able to rent so being able to buy a house outright will be amazing.
"We are also going to go on an amazing holiday, too. My husband and I always wanted to go to Mexico on our honeymoon, but it just wasn't possible. So a trip to Mexico is definitely on the cards when we can travel again."
