A huge lottery win for a Ridgeway couple.
The Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation says Karen and Pat Huffman have won $1-million, after matching all 7-Encore numbers in the exact order in the March 19 Lotto 6/49 draw.
They have 5-kids, and 8-grandchildren, and have been playing the lottery for years.
One day she stopped for a bottle of water at Avondale in Ridgeway, when she decided to grab a ticket as well.
The OLG says they initially thought they'd won $1,000, but checked it a few more times... she even thought Pat was playing a trick on her.
They plan to share the winnings with their kids and travel.
