The man claimed his prize at the National Lottery offices in Dublin today after leaving the winning ticket in his unlocked car overnight. He purchased the €1.50 Quick Pick ticket in Centra, Main Street, Balla, Castlebar, Co. Mayo.

The farmer hails from Claremorris and is married with children. He is wisely choosing to remain anonymous, but according to The Journal he’s planning a few things with his winnings, including “holidays, maybe a new car, and [putting] the kids through their education.”

Buyers in Balla Mart should look out for the farmer with the fancy new wellies this weekend...
