Saskatoon man hits $1.4M VLT jackpot, then covers everyone's bill at Boston Pizza
Winning Vault Breaker left Marc Lepage stunned, and generous Marc Lepage walked into a Boston Pizza for a quick bite, and walked out a millionaire. The Saskatoon local was grabbing a meal at the Nelson Road location on April 29, when he decided to try his luck on a nearby video lottery terminal (VLT). Within moments, he'd won the grand jackpot on the popular Vault Breaker game, landing a massive prize of $1,455,892.44. 'I didn't know what to do,' said Lepage. 'So, I paid the bills for everyone else in Boston Pizza and called the lottery office.' The spontaneous decision to play turned into a life-changing moment for Lepage, who can now enjoy life debt-free. 'There is something about being debt-free in this day and age — what a gift!' he said. With his winnings, Lepage plans to keep it simple: pay off bills, go on a family trip, and relax. 'I'm going to pay some bills and take my family on a holiday,' he said. The game that changed Lepage's life is part of a province-wide system you'll find in hundreds of local establishments. What is Vault Breaker? Vault Breaker is a wide-area progressive jackpot available through the Saskatchewan VLT program. The game connects more than 4,200 VLTs across roughly 570 locations in 270 communities, giving players the chance to win one of the three mystery jackpots. The grand jackpot starts at $500,000 and pays out before it reaches $1.5 million. There's also a regional jackpot that begins at $5,000 and pays out before it hits $25,000, as well as a local jackpot that starts at $100 and maxes out at $500. Any Vault Breaker game spin could trigger a win from one of these tiers. Since launching in 2017, the province-wide grand jackpot alone has paid out more than $50 million to 51 lucky players. With Lepage's recent win, the grand jackpot has now been reset to $500,000 and is once again up for grabs.
