Thais flock to pray to a lump of wood after policeman wins 114 million on the lottery

[ramrod711 7,308]

Waste of time really, Thais should be more scientific about the lottery. My wife monitors the news channels, watching like a hawk, for people that have survived horrible automobile accidents. She gets the plate number then buys the corresponding lottery ticket, very scientific. She never wins but if she ever does....

title made me think they were attracted to the cop's "woody" because he won so much

You beat me to it.

My version: That's not a "chunk of wood", that's a WOODY !

They believe they can get the numbers they need from the spirit of a bit of wood housed at the temple of Wat Ban Non Jik. 

 

What do they mean with THEY? Isn't that common sense do so so? 

Sisaketians are different........

I read in a medical report, men if you rub your wood, you can get 155 million numbers out at the moment of happiness.

Lump of wood. Are these people living in the modern real world???

Gambling on the state lottery and horse races in Bangkok are legal. 

 

So is using a zebra crossing.
