Local lottery winners to be announced today

COEUR d'ALENE - A Coeur d'Alene couple who won the $145,000 Wild Card jackpot on Oct. 8 will be announced today during a press conference at Fairway Gas and Grocery, 1745 W. Kathleen.

David Workman, Idaho Lottery spokesman, said the couple has agreed to come public today.

Wild Card is played in Idaho, Montana, North Dakota and South Dakota.

In the game, players select five numbers from 1 to 31, and a Wild Card which is one face card from a standard deck of cards and that card's suit. When all five numbers and the Wild Card are matched, the player wins the jackpot.
