Last Friday the Euromillions Lotto celebrated its fifth birthday and to celebrate organisers offered a special jackpot sized birthday fund for players from the nine participating countries to play in. So although Friday 13th may be notoriously unlucky it certainly wasn’t unlucky for Euromillions lottery players.

And we are sure there must have been plenty of them, especially when you consider that the overall odds of winning a prize in the lottery are one in twenty four. The odds of winning a top prize of course are certainly a lot higher and may seem a long shot at 1 in 76.2 million but then someone has to win and there have been plenty of jackpot winners over the five years since the EUromillion Lottery launch and there will no doubt be many more in the future.
There has been some real high points for the lottery not least then in August 2007 when Angela Kelly scooped £35.4 million on the draw becoming the largest UK lottery prize winner ever. That’s not the only time the Euromillions has broken records either, in July 2005 one Dolores McNamara from Ireland scooped a massive £125 million in the draw and to this day she remains the biggest Euromillions winner ever.
The draw launched on Friday 13th February 2004 and is one of the largest lottery games in the world played in nine participating countries, draws are held once weekly in Paris ever Friday evening.
