Lucky Jack’s €500k win
Owners of Kerry store tell of joy at third big Lotto success story
Fitzpatrick were yesterday celebrating their latest success.
They previously sold a Lotto ticket that shared a €6.7million jackpot in 2011 and a €2.4million win in a shop they previously owned in the town in 2003.
Tracy said: “We can’t believe it. “There is huge excitement and buzz in the store today, everybody is in great form. We are a very busy shop with a lot of passing traffic and we had a bumper summer with tourists so it could be a local or a visitor.
“But we are keeping our fingers crossed it is a local.”
“We are no strangers to the big winners.
“It is fantastic for the town and local community.”
