$554,959.95 jackpot awarded in Montmartre!
Montmartre, SK – Western Canada Lottery Corporation (WCLC) is pleased to announce a Vault Breaker jackpot prize awarded by the Saskatchewan VLT program. Henry Stoppler of Montmartre was awarded $554,959.95 after winning the grand jackpot on Vault Breaker at Montmartre Hotel Bar & Grill in Montmartre.
Stoppler said he was just about to stop playing when he won his $554,959.95 prize.
“I was about to cash out, then the Vault Breaker came up,” he said. “[When the prize amount came on the screen] the restaurant worker was dancing around – she was so happy for me!”
The new winner said he has a couple ideas for his recent windfall, starting with sharing with his large family.
“My wife and I have nine kids between the two of us,” he shared. “I’m going to share it with the family.”
Stoppler also plans to buy a new truck, invest and make a couple donations.
