A Calgary man who won a whopping $1 million on the lottery says it’s been a “dream come true.”

Lovepreet Singh purchased his winning Lotto 6-49 ticket from the Circle K on Coral Springs Boulevard N.E.

He says he was out running errands when he stopped for gas and decided to check his ticket.

After realizing he won, Singh sent his wife a Snapchat to share the news.

“She was shouting on the stairs when I got home,” he said in a Thursday news release from the Western Canada Lottery Corporation. “She was completely surprised and so excited!”

Singh says he and his wife are planning to buy a house together.

He won his prize in the March 15 Gold Ball draw with the selection 32814105-02, a white ball.
