Abu Dhabi’s Big Ticket Live Show has been making dreams come true for years, and this week was no exception. The live draw for the month of February was held on Thursday, March 2, and saw Turkish national Sam Heidaritorshizi named the grand prize winner.
Sam, a resident of Dubai, was over the moon as he walked away with a whopping AED15 million in prize money. The first-time participant in the Big Ticket draw had purchased his winning ticket online, taking advantage of the buy-two-get-one-free promotion during the first week of February.
When Big Ticket representatives tried to contact Sam to inform him of his win, his phone line was busy with congratulatory calls from his close friends. He expressed his gratitude for the life-changing prize and praised Big Ticket, saying that they have changed his life.
The second prize of AED1 million was won by Emirati national Salim Albastaki. Salim, who has been purchasing Big Tickets for the past 15 years, says he first found out about the draw through an advertisement and decided to give it a try. He expressed his gratitude for his win and says that he will continue to purchase Big Tickets in the hope that he will one day also take home the grand prize.
