Someone in Dublin scooped almost €500,000 in Friday night's EuroMillions draw

Decent timing for it.

Friday night's EuroMillions jackpot was a colossal €102,382,992.

It's the kind of staggering figure that shakes you up just looking at it.

So maybe it's a good thing that nobody won it and it will now just increase in mass over time, terrifying us once more anew.

The results did bring good Christmas fortune for one lucky Irish player, however, as a Dublin individual landed a huge €489,376 in the draw having matched five numbers along with one Lucky Star.

The unnamed player hails from Tallaght and the ticket in question was purchased in Dunnes Stores in Kilnamanagh.

Those winning numbers in question are 2 12 15 34 50 with Lucky Stars of 3 and 4.

“Congratulations to last night’s winner this is fantastic news for one of our EuroMillions players just on time for Christmas!" exclaimed an excited National Lottery spokesperson.

"We are urging all our players to check their tickets to see if their numbers have come up."

Definitely the right idea. Meanwhile, the Christmas Day EuroMillions draw will now rise to €110 million.

Again, a startling figure.
