MORRISBURG, Ontario – Barry McMillan of Morrisburg is all smiles after winning a $77,777 top prize with INSTANT TRIPLING RED 7s (Game #2033).

“TRIPLING RED 7s has been really good to me!” shared Barry while at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to pick up his prize. “Just a few weeks ago I won $777.”

At first, in a state of disbelief he didn’t think he actually won the top prize. “I needed to be sure, so I took the ticket to be validated. That’s when I saw ‘Big Winner’ appear on the terminal and the amount. It still feels so unreal,” said the father of two.

Barry’s two children were just married in the last year. “This win will definitely help them out.”

The self-proclaimed boat enthusiast is excited to look around for a small fishing boat. “We live along the St. Lawrence and summer is just around the corner. The timing is perfect!” he concluded.

INSTANT TRIPLING RED 7s is a $5 INSTANT game that has seven top prizes of $77,777. Overall odds of winning are 1 in 3.86.

The winning ticket was purchased at Mustard’s Variety on Plaza Drive in Iroquois.
