“I Thought it Was $191!”: Lytton Resident Scores $191K from Lotto Max

After a jampacked day, Jennifer Brown took a nap. Her ‘nap’ went a little longer than she expected, and she didn’t wake up until 2:30 a.m. It was then, in the dark of the early morning, that Brown used her phone to check her lottery ticket and discovered she won $191,101.50 from the March 18, 2025 Lotto Max draw.  

“I was at a big basketball tournament all week long,” recalled Brown. “When I woke up at 2:30 a.m., I checked the ticket on my phone and discovered I won! I thought it was $191, then I saw three more digits and started crying.”  

The Lytton resident woke up her son to share the news. “He thought I got a leg cramp hence I was crying. I told him I won and showed him my phone!” 

Brown is retired but stays busy with her role as a manager for the Junior All Native Tournament. “We’ve got 114 teams in total this year and my son is the coach!”  

With her winnings, Brown plans to buy a new car. “I will maybe travel to Asia if my son can take some time off!”  

The ticket was purchased at Lake City Casino in Vernon.
