He won $125K at the Calgary Stampede but his ticket expired

from THE DAILY BRIEF · host Josh

Curtis Geiger, a Calgarian who won a $125,150 lottery prize, was denied his winnings because he missed a strict 48-hour claim deadline. He purchased the winning ticket for the Calgary Stampede Showband 50/50 draw on July 11, 2026, but left for a vacation in Greece shortly after and forgot to check the numbers. Upon checking his ticket roughly 30 days later, he realized he held the winning ticket but was rejected by lottery organizers.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-daily-brief--6679022/support.Don’t miss our latest episodes!
