North Vancouver dad wins ‘Concert of a Lifetime’ grand prize

Avid music fan Douglas Lenhart is excited to make the 'Wildest Dreams' of his family and friends come true to see one of the world's biggest stars at BC Place

A North Vancouver resident became “The Lucky One” after finding out he had won the Concert of a Lifetime grand prize for an upcoming show at BC Place.

Douglas Lenhart received a call from the British Columbia Lottery Corporation sharing that he'd won the prize – a VIP suite at the stadium for him and 13 guests for one of “the biggest concerts of the year” happening in December.

“I’ve never been in a box suite before,” Lenhart said in a BCLC release. “I know my son and his wife are going to freak out.”

The avid music lover plans on also bringing his girlfriend, family and close friends to the concert, and plans on donating four seats in his VIP suite to the Make-A-Wish-Foundation.

Lenhart bought a Concert of Lifetime scratch and win ticket on a whim from the Town Pantry on Lonsdale Avenue in North Vancouver.

“It’s crazy. I can’t believe that I’ve won, I’m so excited!” Lenhart said.

The BCLC has not confirmed that the prize is for Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour concert at BC Place next month, although all signs point to that as Swift will be performing at BC Place from Dec. 6 to 8. Coincidence? Maybe. Or maybe it's "Karma."
