Original Toronto Star caption: This Cupid's struck it rich, After Leandro Beuilacqua of Hamilton picked up his lottery winnings of $365,000 at the Toronto Lottario office yesterday, he headed for the nearest card shop to buy his wife a valentine. It was the biggest one he could see and it cost $4. I guess I can just about afford this, Beuilacqua jocked.
