TORONTO - Marc Robert of Foleyet is celebrating after winning a $100,000 top prize with Instant Crossword Tripler (Game #2220).

Marc, a 64-year-old father of two, said he’s a regular lottery player and enjoys playing instant tickets the most. “I like Crossword and Bingo because they take longer to play.”

Marc was playing his ticket when he realized he matched six words. “After double checking, I said to myself 'okay I won'.”

Living in a small town, good news spreads quick. “Maybe within five minutes everyone knew I won,” he laughed.

He plans to complete some home renovations and will treat himself to a few things.
