Equity and effect were only some of the words that Brennon Toohey of Hamilton revealed on his Instant Crossword Extreme ticket to win a $350,000 top prize. 

“I enjoy playing Instant tickets – Crosswords are fun!” shared Brennon, while at the OLG Prize Centre in Toronto to pick up his win. 

Brennon, a 36-year-old father of two, knew he had a winning ticket as he was crossing off the letters on his Instant Crossword Extreme. 

“I went to the store to verify and I was white as a ghost,” the steel mill worker said. “I scanned it so many times. It was hard to believe!” 

Brennon plans to pay some bills with his win. “And we’ll make a trip to Costco!” he smiled. 

“This is surreal,” he concluded.
