Great euphoria and a coming and going of customers and onlookers since this morning in the Oggiono venue, in the Brianza area of Lecco, where a 6 worth 223.2 million euros was won in the Superenalotto. The owner Massimo Sala had to stay in another place he manages not far away, thus leaving his sales assistants the task of answering questions and compliments.
However, it was one of them who sold the winning Jackpot yesterday morning: "Anyone could have bought it, here there is a large flow of customers because we are inside the Il Viaggiatore greedy supermarket - explained Elisa, one of them - so there are also a lot of people coming from other countries". The store was opened together with the department store 6 years ago.
"I would have no doubts: he is a man and a regular, certainly one from the area", says the shop assistant, Daniela Timaco. The woman was on duty from 7 to 12.30. Today her hours are from 12.30pm to 8pm but she arrived early to participate in toasts and celebrations.
"I would rule out the possibility that she is a woman, in my opinion she is one of the customers who always plays the same type of betting slip - he said - I know it now, here there are those who always play certain types of betting slips, there are those who are obsessed with the two, three and five betting slips, those who want superstars".
Daniela did not hide her joy at having somehow contributed to making someone a millionaire but she is also certain that the winner will never show up. "I really don't expect it, if it had been a smaller amount perhaps, because it happens that someone has a win even with scratch cards and maybe leaves you a tip, offers you coffee but here the amount is too high - he added - However, when someone has such an amount in their hand and everyone knows that there is a winner around... it seems impossible to me that he can be found".
"The ticket was sold yesterday morning around 10, clearly a lot of people pass by us, both regular customers and those passing through since we are on the Milan-Lecco route", underlined Massimo Sala, the owner of the point of sale, also specifying that the place has existed for 25 years.
Six years ago it changed its name (previously it was called El Chicherin), but not its management, and it remained within the supermarket which in turn changed ownership, becoming part of the Il viaggior greedy chain. "Being inside the supermarket it becomes difficult to try to identify the person who bought the ticket - added Sala who this morning remained in the other place he manages in Valletta Brianza - I can only say that it is a single bet, that is, it is only one player, a single ticket".
The winning set was: 8-13-16-52-64-70 Jolly 17- SuperStar 21 The Jackpot was hit with a 5 euro ticket. With yesterday's one, Sisal informs, 119 Jackpots have been awarded since the birth of SuperEnalotto to date. Two of the three highest jackpots in the history of SuperEnalotto were won in Lombardy.
The last "6" of 35.4 million euros was hit in 2025 in Desenzano del Garda on 22 May 2025 with a 5 euro ticket; the "6" worth 88.2 million euros was instead made in Rome on 20 March 2025 with a 3 euro ticket.
The ranking of the 10 highest winnings in the history of SuperEnalotto sees today's win in second place in the history of the game for the highest prize money. 371.1 million euros had been won on 16 February 2023, the highest win ever, 223.2 million euros today, 209.2 million euros on 13 August 2019 in Lodi, 177.7 million euros on 30 October 2010, 163.5 million euros had been won on 27 October 2016 in Vibo Valentia.
And again, 156.3 million euros were hit on May 22, 2021 in Montappone, 147.8 million euros in 2009 in Bagnone, 139 million euros rained down in 2010 in Parma and Pistoia. Kissed by fortune with 130.2 million euros in 2018 Caltanissetta and finally Naples with 101.5 million euros in 2024.
There have been 135 wins with a "6" since SuperEnalotto was created. From 1997 to today, considering only the first category winnings, over 5 billion euros in prizes have been distributed. Mathematically there are 622 million possible sextuplets to hit the exact combination. The new game formula, introduced in 2016, also contributed to the growth of the Jackpot: a more substantial part of the collection is allocated to the jackpot, you can also win with a 2 and instant prizes are available.
