A Chatham teacher is more than a half million richer thanks to a big lotto win. 
Raymond De Ridder managed a Football Pool card win of $514,314.
The-33-year-old plays every Sunday, adding, “I won all the afternoon and evening games and chose the underdog for Monday’s game, which I thought was crazy,” he laughed. “It was a really intense game, and very exciting when they won!”
He says he plans on paying off his bills and making life easier.
The winning ticket was purchased at Piggy Mart on McNaughton Avenue in Chatham.
