Lotto fever has gripped a Cork harbour town — a playground for the wealthy where luxury yachts are a regular sight — as rumours swirl about the identity of Ireland’s newest Lotto millionaire. People were streaming into Bernard Lynch’s Centra store in scenic Crosshaven yesterday following confirmation that it had sold the €5.6m ticket on Saturday. The jackpot winner scoops a cool €5,685,384. Store manager Conor Middleton said excitement was palpable. The latest Lotto jackpot in Cork comes just a week after workers in SuperValu Midleton won €219,472.
