In a whirlwind of fortune, Lotto Plus has just revealed a quartet of lottery winners spread across four different provinces, all sharing a staggering total of 60 million baht in prize money from first-prize tickets. Among these lucky winners, one woman from the picturesque northern province of Phichit hit the jackpot by purchasing five tickets, each boasting the fabulous winning number, securing herself a whopping 30 million baht!
On May 16, the Government Lottery Office (GLO) declared the sensational winning first-prize number to be 251309. But the excitement didn’t stop there; additional prizes were announced, including two sets of three-digit front numbers, 109 and 231, alongside two sets of three-digit back numbers, 965 and 631, and a two-digit back number, 87. These thrilling wins were immortalized in a live event as Lotto Plus dramatically unveiled the victorious tickets from their safe.
The jubilant roster of winners featured Em from Rayong, Tor from bustling Bangkok, Jane from serene Uthai Thani, and of course, the elated Pui from Phichit. Em, the first to receive the exhilarating news, had won a single ticket worth a dazzling 6 million baht. With his heart racing and a beaming smile, Em eagerly confirmed his victory, opting to have his windfall neatly delivered.
Next in line was Tor, who had secured his fortune with a staggering eight tickets, of which two were first-prize winners, netting him a hefty 12 million baht. As the anticipation mounted, he was already seated in front of the live broadcast, mentally prepared for the life-changing call and requested delivery of his newfound riches.
Overwhelmed with joy, Jane was up next after purchasing a lucky 13 tickets. Her gamble paid off handsomely with two first-prize tickets, blessing her with a cool 12 million baht. While grappling with a mix of surprise and disbelief during the call, Jane decided to take her time pondering the option of having the windfall delivered or transferred.
Finally, it was Pui’s turn to bask in her moment of glory. Having watched the draw with bated breath, her excitement was palpable when she was contacted. The five tickets she had bought had all turned into golden tickets worth a collective 30 million baht, leaving her floating on a cloud of elation. Her festive moment was shared with the public as celebrities Joek Ice Cream and Ta Fedfe graced the live event to present the grand prizes, as reported by KhaoSod.
Adding another layer of charm to this tale of whimsical fortune was the story of a Rayong restaurateur. A twist of fate, involving a broken durian delivery wheel that ended up on a neighbor’s roof, led to this fortuitous lottery win of 12 million baht. It seems the winds of luck were blowing favorably indeed!
In other lively happenings around Thailand: Chalong saw a raid netting wire thieves, the State Railway of Thailand unveiled plans to test refurbished diesel trains for suburban routes, and chaos reigned as floods gridlocked the roads of Bang Na in Bangkok. Meanwhile, an SUV driver had a miraculous escape in Chon Buri, thanks in part to the power of a protective amulet.
Weather reports predict an onslaught of heavy rain and flash floods set to sweep through a dozen provinces, while on a more bizarre note, a tale from Rayong tells of a man choosing rather public means for private needs, ignoring a nearby bathroom. Ah, just another day full of the unpredictable twists and turns of life in the Land of Smiles!
Winning the lottery is not as great as it seems! Most people go broke within a few years.
That’s a bit negative. If managed wisely, it could be a life-changing opportunity.
True, but how many actually invest wisely? Many end up spending recklessly.
People should get financial advisors after such a win. It’s crucial to manage such a windfall.
Isn’t it strange how all these winners come up around the same time? Almost as if it’s orchestrated.
Totally agree. Sometimes I feel like it’s a marketing ploy to increase ticket sales.
I think it’s pure luck. Coincidences happen!
30 million baht? I’d never work a day again with that kind of money!
People think winning the lottery will make them happy, but money can’t solve all problems.
While that may be true, it sure solves a lot of them. Like bills!
Exactly, but it might also bring about unforeseen challenges, like envy and pressure.
Congratulations to the winners, but part of me wishes we could redirect this luck into something more sustainable.
I’m happy for them! With such a win, they have a real opportunity to make a difference in their communities.
Exactly! They could set up foundations or scholarship programs with that kind of money!
True, but how many people actually do that? Greed often takes over.
I doubt Em, Tor, and Jane will maintain their sanity with all the vultures that will come after their wealth.
All the drama aside, I hope these winners find true happiness and peace with their new fortunes!
Peace with a lot of money is hard to come by—they’ll have to work for it.
That’s a good point! I just hope they manage it well.
This feels like a fairy tale! A broken durian wheel leading to a win? You’ve got to be kidding me!
Hey, life is weirder than fiction sometimes!
For real though, what’s the psychological impact of suddenly acquiring so much wealth?
It can be quite significant—many face stress from responsibility and new social dynamics.
I imagine you’d need a therapist more than ever.
This isn’t just luck, it’s divine intervention!
What are the odds of winning all those tickets? Feels like everyone else doesn’t stand a chance.
I always find it suspiciously convenient how these lottery stories play out in the media.
Yeah, they love hyping it up to get more people buying tickets. It’s all about profits!
Are we sure these events aren’t staged? Just saying, it all seems too perfect.
Oh come on, life is full of coincidences. Why not just celebrate the happiness?
In the end, does anyone really benefit from winning the lottery long-term?
I wish I had that kind of ‘problem’! A little win here and there wouldn’t hurt anyone.
I wonder what financial advisors would say about handling such a sum responsibly.
