Retired Santa from Winnipeg wins life-changing $60M lotto jackpot

WNews Banner

Christmas came early this year for Randy Glays, a retired Santa from Winnipeg who won a $60-million Lotto Max jackpot earlier this month.

Glays — who worked year-round for more than 20 years dressing up as Santa Claus at events around the city — says when he was first told he’d won, he thought he was the victim of a delayed April Fools’ Day joke.

“It’s going to change our life, and hopefully it can change other peoples lives,” Glays said Friday morning, during a Western Canada Lottery Corporation news conference announcing the largest single-ticket win purchased at a retail outlet in Manitoba’s history.
