A player made history by winning a massive jackpot of over 4 million euros in a Keno game on August 13, according to the French National Lottery (FDJ). The win, announced on September 9, set a new record for the game, with the amount reaching 4,000,020 euros. The winner, who chose to stay anonymous, played through the FDJ app and added humorous remarks targeting his wife on each of the grids he submitted. His favorite message was “I won!” followed by a playful pause, “…the right to try again!”
When the player first saw the amount on his screen on August 13, he was shocked and thought it might be an error. He had to restart his phone multiple times and even counted the zeros to confirm the win. Once he realized the joke had turned into reality, his wife celebrated with a humorous shout referencing the French film Les Tuche, yelling, “Fries, fries, fries!”
The couple now plans to give a car to their children and increase their contributions to charities they care about. They also hope to slow down their hectic lifestyle and finally enjoy a more relaxed retirement.
The FDJ article included a contact number—09.74.75.13.13—for individuals struggling with gambling addiction. The Joueurs info service is available from 8 am to 2 am every day of the week, offering support to those affected by excessive gambling.
