El Gordo 72897 lucky number drawn at Spanish Christmas lottery | NEWZEE

El Gordo's (The Fat One), the top prize in Spain's traditional Christmas lottery, lucky number 72897 was called after the draw begun at 8.00 gmt on Tuesday (December 22).
Children of the San Ildefonso school brought Spain to a standstill after singing the number awarded with four million euros to the series, 400.000 euros minus taxes to the ticket.
This year fractions of the winning number were spread across various locations of the country including Madrid, Granada, Bilbao, Cordoba, Tarragona and Salamanca.
The complex rules of the draw - which allow for multiple purchases of the same lottery number - make it almost impossible to decipher how many people have won.
The most common ticket costs 20 euros, offering up to 400,000 euros in prize money, minus taxes. The jackpot is purposely designed to allow as many people as possible a small win or to at least break even with a free ticket.
Across Spain, people come together to buy tickets for El Gordo. This year, the popular tradition is bringing some much needed hope to many Spaniards, who have endured some of the toughest lockdown restrictions and highest coronavirus tolls in Europe.
