Winning at Scratch and win it’s a matter of luck. But winning The Billionaire and taking home 500 thousand euros is more unique than rare. This chance was given to a citizen of Mozzecane, in the province of Verona, where he scratched the lucky ticket at Tabaccheria Bonato Rivendita. And all for just 5 euros.
The winning numbers
The lucky coupon was sold on Thursday 30 May, the Corriere reports, and 37 was the number that hid the 500 thousand euros. The winner is a man of foreign origins who arrived in Italy around the 90s, perfectly integrated. «He is a regular customer of ours – declared the owner of the tobacconist Luca Bonato – we see it every week.” Now the gentleman, to collect the money, will have to go to the National Lottery headquarters, which is located in Rome.
After just over two weeks, you should see half a million in your account.
A lucky tobacconist
However, it is not the first time that Tabaccheria Bonato has achieved these successes. In 2015, another gentleman won a 100 thousand euro scratch card. “500 thousand is a completely different story – concluded the manager – and I believe that something like this hasn’t been seen in Verona for at least two years”.
