A Curlewis man is gearing up for some metal-detecting fun after his special Keno numbers unearthed a $50,000 prize.
The man scored the Keno Classic 8 Spot jackpot in draw 63, drawn Tuesday, November 12, 2024. He won a total of $50,184.60.
The cheerful man confessed he was still floating on air when officials from Keno called him to confirm the winning news.
“I’m very good!” he laughed.
“It’s amazing. I’m going to buy a metal detector, and I wouldn’t mind a new car!
“I’ve won a bit here and there on Keno, but never anything like this.
“I always like to play a KwikPick and a marked entry. It was my special numbers I’ve used for ages that got me the win.
“It’s great because there’s been many times I’ve been one or two numbers off, so to match them all is super cool.
“Thank you so much.”
The man’s winning Keno Classic entry was purchased from Commercial Hotel, Cnr Railway and Goran Street, Curlewis.
Commercial Hotel managing owner Erin Van Beeck said the team was ecstatic for their winning customer.
“We’re very excited that one of our locals won such a large amount on Keno. We couldn’t be happier for them!”
“People were looking around for who the winner could be. People were even calling friends, telling them to check their Keno tickets.
“The last major win we had was New Year’s Eve 2023. It’s great to have another one.
“All the best for the lucky winner, just in time for Christmas!”
