Swiss wins 135 million euros in the lotto

basel - A lotto player in Switzerland can afford one or maybe two extra venison steaks at Christmas. He bought a ticket for 20 euros on Tuesday afternoon, which now turns out well for the first prize of 135 million euros.

The gambling company Swisslos announced on Wednesday that the winning ticket was bought near the city of Zurich. Whether the lucky person has already reported is not known.

The last time that the main prize came to the company was 3.5 years ago and with 27 million euros it was a lot more modest. The highest price the company paid up to now was 100 million euros in 2013.
