Hospital Workers Win $6 Million In Lottery

A group of Canadian hospital workers got quite the Halloween surprise – a lottery ticket worth $6 million.

The four friends, who work at a hospital in British Columbia, have been playing the lottery for over a year using their birthdays and anniversaries for their numbers.   Heewan Choi, the “team captain”, says she first thought the ticket was worth $6,000 – until she looked closer and saw a few more zeroes.

Their plans for the money?  At least one winner plans to donate part of her winnings to the Royal Columbian Hospital Foundation. In case you’re wondering, $6 million in Canadian dollars translates to about $4.5 million USD.
