Professional truck driver Colin Ahearn stopped at the Tullamore Hotel for dinner and decided to have a game of Keno at the same time.
He hadn’t been home for four weeks and was resting in his truck when he was woken to be told he’d won the Ford Mustang GT Fastback in Keno’s Win a Mustang promotion.
“I was in there for tea. I’m always on the highway,” Colin said.
“My missus didn’t believe me when I called to tell her. It took me a while to believe it was true too.”
Tullamore Hotel owner Anna Heitzmann said she was delighted for the winner and extremely excited about being the venue to give away the prize.
“A young staff member, Kristen, was working that night, and helped the winner fill out the ticket,” Anna said.
“When he won the jackpot, he gave her $40 to celebrate after her shift,” she said.
