'Didn’t believe me': Shawnigan Lake man wins $100K lottery prize
Dylan S. plans to use the lottery winnings for a home down payment after checking his ticket outside a gas station, he said.
- Shawnigan Lake resident Dylan won a $100,000 MAXPLUS prize from the Oct. 13, 2026, Lotto Max draw after checking his ticket on the BCLC Lotto App outside a gas station.
- His winning ticket was purchased at Mason's Store and Patio on Renfrew Road in Lake Shawnigan, where Dylan went inside to verify after he "freaked out" scanning it on his phone.
- Friends and family were skeptical when Dylan shared the news, with "half of them didn't believe me," and his father advised him to verify the prize wasn't just $100.
- Dylan plans to put the $100,000 toward a down payment on a home, marking a significant life milestone for the Shawnigan Lake winner.
- Every Lotto Max draw includes multiple $100,000 cash prizes, with odds of winning a MAXPLUS prize at 1 in 33,446,140; for every $1 million in the main jackpot, another $100,000 prize is added.
