webfact Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 LOTTERY HOPEFULS Don't meddle spirit's signal with mobile phone By Patcharapol Panrak The Nation Published on September 15, 2009 Don't meddle spirit's signal with mobile phone The secret to getting Chon Buri's famed Thakhienthong tree-stump spirit to cough up winning lottery numbers has been revealed. Switch off your mobile so as not to interfere with the spirit world's signal, advised a local seer. Crowds of lottery hopefuls did just that yesterday as they arrived at the Chaophor Khao Chang shrine in the province's Sattahip district to examine the large stump for hints of winning digits. A female worshipper identified only as Euy said a local was told in a dream that the stump's spirit journeyed from the Prachin Buri River to the Bang Pakong River then into the sea. Eventually the stump came ashore in Laem Kham. Famous spirit Hearing of the dream, locals decided to transport the stump to its present position at the Chaophor Khao Chang shrine. Since then, worshippers have regularly reported being given winning lottery numbers. A Royal Thai Navy officer, Captain Preedasak Boonsriwong, won 10 times in a row after visiting the shrine, said Eu. Certain bookies are reluctant to take any bets if the customer mentions he has visited the Thakhienthong stump, she added. The numbers revealed by the spirit for the next draw? Locals agree it's 99. Bookies have refused to take bets and government lottery tickets with those digits have sold out, said Eu. -- The Nation 2009/09/15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BSJ Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 (edited) Perfectly plausible. The magic fairy, Jack from 'Jack and the Bean Stalk', 'The Tooth Fairy' and 'The man in the Moon' all helped to bring this woody wonder into reality. I can't believe you doubt this story!

Xangsamhua Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 "The numbers revealed by the spirit for the next draw? Locals agree it's 99." Try again, tree-stump spirit. The numbers were 912. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, easy mistake to do, as 912 can be miss-read as 9, (1+2)^2, that is 9, 9 = 99. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
