EuroMillions players in Co. Mayo are being urged to check their tickets very carefully today after a player in the Westport area matched five numbers to scoop €152,670 in last night’s (23rd of August) EuroMillions draw. The winning Normal Play ticket was sold on the 9th of August in Hoban’s, Centra, The Quay Westport, Co Mayo
The winning numbers in Tuesday’s (23rd August) EuroMillions were: 19, 26, 31, 39, 48 and the Lucky stars 2 and 3
Séan Hoban, who owns the store along with his sister Ciara, was delighted to get the call about the win. “We’re in business at the Quay since 1999, I’m actually the 4th generation running the shop and this is our first big win. I can’t wait for the buzz over the next couple of days, there’s sure to be a flurry of local customers in and out checking tickets and asking lots of questions! I hope it’s one of our regular customers, it’s a lovely amount of money and should give some security for the winner, especially with the way things are at the minute and how everything’s gone so expensive. We wish the winner the very best of luck with their prize", he said.
