He won the division one prize of $329.266.60 as well as additional divisional prizes.
The Peterborough man said he was keen to share his TattsLotto windfall with his large family by taking them all on an unforgettable family trip.
The winner purchased his winning 15-game marked entry from Colac Lotto in Murry Street on his way through the town on a trip to Geelong.
“How sweet it is,” he said when a Tatts official phoned him first thing on Monday to confirm his windfall.
The regular TattsLotto player admitted to using what he called his ‘lucky numbers’ to choose his 15-game marked entry.
“I’ve played for a while, and when I chose the numbers I picked my football numbers as well as a few other lucky numbers too,” he said.
When asked how he plans to spend his TattsLotto windfall the Peterborough man said he was keen to share his prize with his large family.
“I’ve got great-grandchildren, grandchildren and my children to share it with,” the man said.
“We will probably go on a family trip somewhere together.”
Colac Lotto owner Roslyn Monaghan said she was thrilled to hear about another division one win.
“This is our third division one win in four months – we are on a roll,” she said.
“We had a hat-trick of wins six or seven years ago and after the first two wins this year I kept telling customers we were going for a hat-trick again.
“It’s really exciting news that we’ve managed to get another one.
The man shared his division one prize with 13 other winners across Australia.
