A Sarnia man got to celebrate April Fools' Day with $50,000 instead of a joke.
Allan Eichler got his first big win on an INSTANT BINGO after being a regular player for nearly 30 years.
"I scratched the ticket at home and saw I won but thought I made a mistake," he said.
Eichler said he plans to do a lot of good with the money he won.
He said he will share his winnings with his sister and treat himself to a new pair of shoes.
Eichler bought the ticket at Confederation Variety on Confederation Street in Sarnia.
