According to the OLG, the prize winner waited until Aug. 9, 2020, one day before the ticket expired, to claim the cash.
Vam-Vounakis was awarded $73,000.
It’s not known what he plans to do with the cash because he did not participate in the post-win interview.
The winning ticket was purchased at the Quik Chek store on Front Road.
