The Kilkenny ticketholder contacted the National Lottery late yesterday evening and plans are underway for the ticket holder to receive their prize.
As well as the Marble City being home to the 12th biggest winner in the history of the game, the National Lottery has also revealed that the winning ticket was not a Quick Pick, the winner personally chose their lucky numbers to bag them the cash prize.
Meanwhile, the National Lottery has also confirmed that it plans to announce the Kilkenny City location where the winning ticket was sold on Saturday morning
