A Quebec Man Won $1 Million & Showed Up In A Limo To Claim His Prize

When it comes to claiming a million-dollar prize, most people might settle for an Uber or a taxi to pick up their winnings, but one Quebec man had much fancier plans.

Poirier, who hails from the Lanaudière region of Quebec, took home a whopping $1,000,000 in the March 15 Extra draw. Loto-Québec said that Poirier had originally forgotten to purchase his ticket at his usual retail location on the way home from work, so he decided to buy one on the crown corporation's website instead – a decision that ultimately made him one million dollars richer.
