Mijo Broz won a Maxmillions prize worth $1 million on Oct. 21.

“This is my biggest win,” said Broz, who has been a regular player of Lotto Max and Lotto 6/49 for many years.

“I checked my tickets using the OLG App and when I saw the Big Winner screen, I thought, ‘Holy cow!'” he said. “I was shocked. My heart was beating fast. I told my mom, and she was so excited and happy for me!”

“I will share this win with family, use some to accelerate my retirement and think about getting a new car,” Mijo said. “It still hasn’t sunk in yet.
