Black Cats Are Lucky In the Canaries
This one crossed the path of residents in Los Realejos, Tenerife, bringing them ten million euros in lottery prizes. Saturday's winning National Lottery tickets with the number 80,208, were sold at the Administración de Loterías número 1, otherwise known as the famous El Gato Negro (The Black Cat).
On Sunday, the area around the lottery office was a fiesta as many of those who had won shares in the prize gathered to celebrate. Some tickets had been purchased by a local residents' association and others had been sold at a recent fiesta, so the first prize is being shared all over the Orotava Valley.
The manager of El Gato Negro, also appeared to be content, says the report, even though he did not win anything. Two members of his staff had better luck: they won 60,101 euros (somewhere around £40,000) each.
Second prizes were also won in Tenerife. Those tickets were sold in La Laguna.
