A Delta man has won the lottery twice in the space of a few years.

Richard Glasner said he was “elated” after finding out he won more than $111,000 from the Lotto Max draw on Oct. 10, just a few years after he and his co-workers split a Maxmillions prize.

Glasner bought the ticket from Ladner Shell Select on 48th Avenue, and was at home when he scanned his ticket on the BC Lotto! app.

“I thought it was $111 and change,” Glasner recalled.

“I was trying to figure out how I won…so I scanned the ticket again and was elated when I realized the actual amount!”

Glasner celebrated his windfall the same way he did with his previous win, over ribs with one of his co-workers, who was part of the group that won the first time.

“It feels amazing. Lightning struck twice,” he added.
