“I enjoy playing the occasional INSTANT PLINKO ticket,” Brooklyn shared while at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to pick up her winnings.
The 44-year-old mother checked her ticket using the OLG App. “I thought I won $1,000 at first but I checked it again and realized it was $100,000. I was frozen – the kids were wondering what happened,” she laughed. “I texted my fiancé to share the news. He didn’t believe me at first and suggested I go back to the store.”
Brooklyn said when she went to the store, she realized it was true. “It feels nice! It was a lot to experience with all the customers in the store. They were all buzzing with excitement and my daughter got right into it with them. I am over the moon – elated!”
Brooklyn is planning some home renovations and saving her win for the future.
$5 INSTANT PLINKO combines popular scratch play with prizes revealed in-store by an animated chip drop on the lottery terminal screen and potentially, the chance to drop a chip on a real PLINKO Board at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto.
There are three fun ways to win with INSTANT PLINKO:
- SCRATCH – Scratch the five (5) LUCKY NUMBERS and twenty-four (24) YOUR NUMBERS entirely. Match any one of the LUCKY NUMBERS to one of YOUR NUMBERS, win the corresponding prize from $5 to $100,000 or a CHIP prize.
- WATCH – If the prize won is CHIP, visit any OLG retail location to validate your ticket. Upon validation of a CHIP winner, watch the animated PLINKO chip drop on the lottery terminal screen to reveal your prize from $10 to $10,000 or a PLINKO top prize.
- DROP – If the prize displayed is PLINKO, you qualify for a PLINKO Event at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to win a guaranteed prize of $100,000 to $500,000.
The winning ticket was purchased at Maclaren Pharmacy on Bridge Street in Campbellford.
