The Winnipeg Football Club says it's co-operating with a review by Manitoba's Liquor and Gaming Authority after it posted an incorrect winning number for its $179,000 50/50 draw.

The winner of the draw was announced over the PA system at the Grey Cup on Nov. 29 but different numbers were posted to the Winnipeg Football Club's website later that night.

According to officials with the club, two digits were accidentally transposed.

The next morning, the number was corrected.

But the winner had already thrown out his ticket after checking the numbers that night on their website.

Charles Ritchot of La Salle, Man., said he put the ticket in the garbage after double-checking it when he got home.

Then he went back in and fished it out – he said as a reminder to himself not to buy any more tickets.

Only when he saw that the prize was still unclaimed days later did he double check his ticket and discover he won.

Officials with the Bombers said, "An error was made because the Winnipeg Football Club did not inform the public that the incorrect number was posted overnight on the website."

The club's processes will be reviewed and staff will be trained to make sure it doesn't happen again, officials said.

"The WFC is already in discussions with the Liquor and Gaming Authority and will fully cooperate to ensure protocols and procedures regarding ‎the 50/50 program meet all requirements that may be recommended during the review," officials said.
