A North Vancouver resident became “The Lucky One” after finding out he had won the Concert of a Lifetime grand prize to see Taylor Swift opening night at 小蓝视频 Place.
Douglas Lenhart received a call from the British Columbia Lottery Corporation last week sharing that he'd won the prize – a VIP suite at the stadium for him and 13 guests for one of “the biggest concerts of the year” happening in December.
“I’ve never been in a box suite before,” Lenhart said in a 小蓝视频LC release. “I know my son and his wife are going to freak out.”
The avid music lover plans on also bringing his girlfriend, family and close friends to the concert, and donating four seats in his VIP suite to the Make-A-Wish-Foundation.
"I figured might as well make it a concert of a lifetime for some people that really deserve it," Lenhart said. "I'm sure it's going to mean a lot more to some kids than it's going to mean to me."
One of the people Lenhart is taking is his mom, who will not only be seeing Swift for the first time, but will also be attending her first pop concert.
Lenhart bought a Concert of Lifetime scratch and win ticket on a whim from the Town Pantry on Lonsdale Avenue in North Vancouver.
On top of the concert prize, Lenhart won $25,000 from the scratch and win ticket.
"I've never won anything like this in my life before, so it's pretty sweet," Lenhart said.
As the concert approaches, Lenhart will be listening to Swift's music to prepare for the big night.
"[She's] a talented musician, great songwriter, I'm going to enjoy it and I'm sure my family will as well," he said.
Swift will be performing at 小蓝视频 Place from Dec. 6 to 8.
