The extraordinary draw for the 2023 Christmas Lottery has kept the excitement until the end, with the latest Gordo in the history of the draw. A prize that resists, but not the rest, which have already made more than one person’s holiday happy. Awards that have taken a bit of begging, coming out in order calmly and from smallest to largest. However, fortune is like that.
Luckily, luck has been very distributed, gracing people who truly need it. In San Fernando, Cádiz, they are overjoyed after being the lucky ones to receive one of the fifth prizes distributed, which will undoubtedly make many families happy. Even more so to that of Emilio, one of his winners, who has managed to thrill all the listeners and professionals of Hoy por Hoy with his story.
This Friday, Àngels Barceló interviewed Emilio, winner of a fifth prize in the Christmas Lottery, but he did not expect that his testimony would leave him on the verge of tears, leaving everyone in the studio very emotional. Emilio had won 6,000 euros thanks to his tenth prize, and he demonstrated with his story that there is no “small” prize.
Emilio’s excitement was more than palpable, as it seemed that he had won a much greater prize as he expressed his joy to Àngels Barceló as soon as he began. “How can I not be happy!” He exclaimed, while explaining that thanks to the money, he could now do what he wanted most in this world: give his children a Christmas.
Emilio, a cook and father of three children, could not hide his emotion. “Life is not going to change much for me because I am going to continue working, but the excitement of my children… It is something that we did not even think about; to think that my children were not going to have Kings, now..”, said Emilio, with a broken voice, explaining that the family had gone through a “kind of bad streak” and that this money came “from the sky.”
A testimony that left those present in the studio speechless, but also the listeners, who listened attentively to Emilio, who was on the verge of crying, but who assured that today he would “feed everyone super happy.”
The journalist, very emotional, could not stop her tears from coming. “These types of stories ground you in reality. Everyone can have their wish, but these things make you realize how lucky we are.”
