Robot Delivers Lotto Winner's Prize Amid Pandemic

The global coronavirus pandemic has changed the way that we do a lot of things, including how we collect our lottery prizes.

A Canadian lottery winner Guylaine Desjardins had been playing the same set of lucky numbers for over 20 years, hoping one day they would make her rich.

She bought her ticket from a local shop and played 1, 12, 27, 30, 34, 49 and the bonus number 35. These are a combination of calendar dates of significant people in her life.

And if the shock of a $6 million win wasn't enough, her check was delivered to her home by a life-sized robot which had been built by local college students.

Canadian health officials have mandated social distancing rules to help curb the spread of the virus, which means that lottery officials had to get creative with how they delivered prizes.

When Guylaine accepted her prize the ceremony was live streamed on Facebook, with everyone wearing masks and maintaining social distancing. Everyone except the robot of course.

Guylaine plans on using her newfound millions to buy herself a three-wheel motorbike, spoil her two sons and take a holiday once travel restrictions are lifted.
