Burbank Man Wins $250,000 in Illinois Lottery

A Burbank man bought a $250,000 winning lottery ticket from a grocery store in Frankfort last week.

“I usually buy a Monopoly ticket but the store was out of that game so I had to choose something different. I am so happy I made the right choice,” Christopher Bielecki told the Illinois Lottery.

The Jewel-Osco store on LaGrange Road in Frankfort will receive $2,500 for selling the winning ticket.

And what’s next for Bielecki?

“I plan to take my sister and niece on a trip to Universal Studios theme park in Florida,” he said.

Well done, Uncle Chris.
