Badger family wins $22.8 million jackpot

A brother and sister from Badger have a long-standing agreement that if “one wins, we both win”—and a Lotto America jackpot worth $22.8 million was no exception.   

 

Debbie Kujava purchased the $22.8 million winning ticket for the Wednesday, March 14 drawing at Holiday Stationstores, located at 503 3rd St. N.E. in Roseau, on her way home from work on Monday, March 12.   

 

The morning after the drawing, Debbie checked her ticket and noticed the numbers were a perfect match. She initially thought their ticket was worth $2 million, so she went over to her brother Dennis’ house and said, “We’re millionaires!”
