'We thought this was a joke': Limerick family syndicate take home €5.6m jackpot

The group organised a surreal WhatsApp call where family members were told of the unbelievable news

"We thought this was a joke and they were having us on! We were just in complete disbelief, and still were until we saw the physical cheque in front of us today.”

These are the words of a Limerick family who picked up €5.6m following their Lotto jackpot success.
