“I was sitting there watching the board… all of the numbers started to light up,” Lambert recalled. “At first I couldn’t believe it. I had to keep checking the ticket over and over again.”
Lambert plans to treat his daughter to a spa day with some of his prize and adds “it feels good to be a winner, it’s pretty exciting.”
