The Sant Andreu lottery that has sold a second prize: “I would give all the millions to my neighborhood”

“If I could, I would distribute all the millions in my neighborhood,” says happy Daniel Zapata, the owner of the administration 232 of the Sant Andreu neighborhood of Barcelona. But this January 6 he has been able to deliver a single tenth of the second prize of the Lottery of the Child. Luck has been elusive with Catalonia in 2022. It has only collected a few crumbs. If these tips have been celebrated by the rest of the lotteries with the same enthusiasm as that of Zapata, who has uncorked the bottle of protocol cava and has invited a sip to whoever crossed in front of his administration, welcome in times of pandemic.

The only tenth that Zapata has delivered has been “by machine”, which means that the lucky man went to the administration looking for any tenth ending in 69, his lewd reasons would have. But when he arrived, Zapata had already sold all the tenths that he distributed that ended in that figure. And what is done in those cases is to ask “the machine” to give you any tenth with that ending keep it available. He gave him the 44469. And they have touched him 75,000 euros. Nothing bad. But nobody knows who it is. “I honestly don’t remember who I sold it to,” Zapata admits.

The first grand prize

“I don’t think I’m coming here this morning, that’s money and when you get large amounts of money, relatives come out from under the stones and people choose to be discreet,” reasons Zapata’s colleague who this morning helped him with the attention to the media. “I have been in this administration for 8 years and 2 months and It is the first time that I give such a big award lottery “, he celebrates smiling even though he has only been able to sell a tenth. Until this Thursday, what he had distributed had been important spoils in pools and primitives, which most entertains his customers. But he had never been able to give a pinch close to the 75,000 euros. “I would like to have given much more money to the people of Sant Andreu but for now this has been,” he reiterates, satisfied.

“What matters is health”

Antonio is one of the clients who deserves to be showered with some of the rain of wealth that Zapata is sure he will one day give. Three years ago he had a stroke from which he only recovered half: he lost vision. Despite the fact that Antonio plays punctually at Christmas to a tenth that also ends in 69, this time he did not touch anything. There were none left when he came to look for it and he did not think of asking for “machine” as the mysterious winner did, trusting in his lujury instinct, or maybe in the year of birth. “I’m not a bitch. I’m a bitch about the stroke. The lottery, no. Health matters. Now – not explicitly alluding to the pandemic – we all know that “.
