Fiesta as town scoops €515m
The lottery, known as El Gordo the Fat One sprinkled more than $2.4 billion (€2.02 billion) in Christmas cheer around Spain, with a quarter of the windfall going to a town previously best known for its churches and convents.
There are lots of ways to win at least something in Spain's nearly 200-year-old Christmas sweepstakes, but the luckiest gamblers this year held the first-prize number 20085.
