There are times where our friends would forget to do something we requested beforehand. But how would you react if their forgetfulness cost you the chance to become rich?
A man, deeply unhappy that he lost out on the chance to become a millionaire no thanks to his friend’s forgetfulness, decided to lash out by assaulting the latter in front of shocked bystanders.
M’sian man punches friend who forgot to buy 4D ticket
In a 32-second video which has been making rounds on social media, it showed two men scuffling and trading punches and kicks with one another in front of a lottery shop.
For a majority of the video, no one except a man stepped in to break up the fight and merely watched at the duo continued to slug it out.
It wasn’t until the end of the clip when the men where finally physically separated from each other after the brave bystander pushed them apart.
According to a report by Daily Express, the incident took place on Dec 29 at a Sandakan Turf Club 4D (STC 4D) lottery outlet in Donggongon, Penampang in Sabah, where the two men headed over there after a drinking session to check on the 4D lottery results.
NST reported that players are allowed to place bets on numbers between 0000 and 9999, with 23 winning numbers drawn each session. Punters must match their chosen numbers with those drawn to claim prizes.
To their dismay, one of the men discovered that the number which won the grand prize was supposed to be bought by his friend, who apparently had forgotten to do so three days earlier.
Angered by the missed opportunity, one of the men vented out his frustration by assaulting his friend, which culminated in the now-viral fight.
While we understand the man feeling extremely upset, it’s still not an excuse to assault anyone just because you didn’t win the lottery!
