Extraordinary Christmas lottery 'El Gordo' draw in Madrid
Pupils of the San Ildefonso school sing out a winning number during the draw of Spain's Christmas lottery 'El Gordo' (the Fat One) at the Royal Theatre in Madrid, on December 22, 2017. The first 'El Gordo' lottery draw, yearly celebrated on December 22, took place in 1812 in Cadiz and has not missed a year since then. In 1938, during Spain's civil war, there were two draws, one held in Burgos by dictator General Franco's regime, and the other one in Republican-ruled Barcelona. 'El Gordo' is ranked as the world's richest lottery draw, handing out a total of 2.3 billion euros this year (Photo by Oscar Gonzalez/NurPhoto)
