Vincent Biamonte has won $42 million, thanks to Lotto 6/49

A Niagara Falls man is celebrating a big win.

The OLG says Vincent Biamonte won $42 million in the June 14th Gold Ball Draw.

The 32 year old hospitality worker says he's played the lottery since 2013, and he can't believe his luck.

"I was so shocked - I had my phone in one hand and the ticket in the other. I was trying to not fall down the stairs."

He says he plans to use the money towards a vacation, home renovations and helping his family.

The winning ticket was bought at Avondale on Montrose Road.
