 A Thunder Bay man says he nearly fainted when he checked his Lotto Max ticket and found he and his wife had won 50 million dollars.

Louis and Jo-Anne Chikoski matched all seven numbers for the March 23rd draw and picked up their winnings yesterday in Toronto.

Louis and Jo-Anne say they used to have their favourite numbers but the windfall came when they chose to play a quick pick.
