VIDEO: RTÉ News captures Lotto winner’s hilarious champagne fail

Pow! Right in the kisser!

Tonight’s RTÉ News saw one Lotto winner get more than she bargained for while trying to open a bottle of bubbly.

RTÉ were reporting on the ten winners from the Cheestrings production line at the Kerry Group factory in Charleville, Co Cork collecting their jackpot at Lotto Headquarters today.

As the cameras rolled for the obligatory champagne spray shot, one of the winners somehow hilariously managed to take it square in the face.

We are sure the embarrassment will subside when she looks at her winner’s cheque!

The syndicate will each claim a tenth of the €3.88m jackpot after buying the ticket a Spar shop in Ballingarry, Co Limerick on November 14.

The shop also happens to be run by Limerick hurling captain Donal O’Grady.
