On January 2nd, 2008, Mr. Lloyd Bjork of Whitehorse visited McCrae Petro Canada to check and validate his lottery tickets purchased in the past month. The lottery ticket checker advised him to have his retailer validate one of his tickets - a 6/49 ticket for the December 19th draw that he had purchased at Super A Foods in Porter Creek. When retailer Jean Murphy checked the ticket, she advised Lloyd that the lottery office was looking for him. To his amazement, he held the 6/49 ticket that shared 5+ the bonus number with four other lucky Canadians, all of whom received a $63,580.40 prize!! Since December 19th, Lotteries Yukon had been advising Yukoners that someone was holding a winning ticket and were pleased when Lloyd came into the office with the winning ticket and validation slip.
