A 58-year-old Brighton resident is celebrating her second big lottery win after netting the $100,000 top prize with Instant Hot Slot Multiplier, says OLG.
“I scratched the whole ticket, and I noticed a couple rows matched,” said Tammy Meikle, of Brighton, when reflecting on her win with OLG. “I couldn’t believe it!
“I grabbed my phone to check using the OLG app and I still couldn’t believe what I was seeing.”
“I ran into the other room and told my husband I won $100,000 and we hugged each other. He told me not to let go because he was going to fall over,” shared Meikle while laughing.
“I will never forget that moment for the rest of my life.”
On Friday, OLG shared the news of Meikle’s win. In their release, Meikle also shared this is her second big lottery win in recent years.
Meikle also won $10,000 in 2019 with Instant the Big Spin.
“I enjoy playing the new games,” she shared, while at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to collect her winnings.
Meikle plans to travel, pay off some bills and share her winnings with family.
“It’s an overwhelming feeling,” added Meikle, of her win.
According to OLG, Instant Hot Slot Multiplier is available for $5 with a top prize of $100,000. Odds of winning any prize are 1 in 3.96.

The winning ticket was purchased at Mister Convenience on Elizabeth Street in Brighton.
