| Video Discription | (22 Dec 2019) The lucky holders of ticket number 26,590 struck it rich in Spain on Sunday when they won the top prize in the nation’s bumper Christmas lottery. The top-prize winning number, with 10 tickets worth 400,000 euros each (436,000 US dollars), fell out of the enormous metallic shuffling bins in a live televised event on Sunday morning. The winners won 20,000 euros for each euro spent on a 20-euro ticket. The incredibly popular lottery, known as El Gordo - or The Fat One - dished out a total of 2.24 billion euros (2.43 billion US dollars) in prizes this year. There are many smaller prizes in addition to the top prize. Other lotteries have bigger individual top prizes, but El Gordo, held each year on December 22, is ranked as the world's richest for the total prize money involved. Children from Madrid's San Ildefonso School called out the prizes on a nationally televised draw at Madrid's Teatro Real opera house. Families, friends and co-workers buy tickets together as part of a winter holiday tradition. They then gather around their television sets, radios or mobile phones, hoping that fortune shines on them. The lottery is run by the state and supports several charity efforts.
