LANGLEY — A Langley man has turned a laid-back slots session into momentum for a brand new home.

Lucas Santos was on his work break when he decided to play a slots game on the BCLC’s Play Now website– and won $100,000.

“I was shocked and very excited,” he recalled. Now we can use this as a down payment towards a house.”

He shared the news with his wife, who was just as happy for him. He also plans to celebrate the win by taking his wife on a trip to Mexico.

Santos is only the most recent Fraser Valley resident to have a brush with Lady Luck. Last month, Richard Courteen-Nurse and David Fisher from Harrison Mills and Mission won $1 million from the June 14 Lotto 6/49 draw.

The winning ticket was purchased at the London Avenue London Drugs in Mission.
