Lion Dance Troupe In Woodlands Gives 4D Winning First Prize Number
Here in Singapore, it’s common for lion dance troupes to leave behind lottery numbers that are supposedly ‘huat’ after their performances.
What’s perhaps less common, is for punters to strike the lottery after buying these huat numbers.
Recently in Woodlands, however, some merchants and customers got lucky after buying a four-digit number that a lion dance troupe left behind.
After betting on permutations of the number, the lucky punters struck the First Prize on 5 Feb and became richer by several thousands.
Lion dance troupe leaves winning numbers after performance in Woodlands
According to Shin Min Daily News, a clothing stall at 303 Woodlands Street 31 hosted a Lantern Festival celebration for nearby businesses and residents last Sunday (5 Feb).
For this year’s celebrations, the merchant invited lion and dragon dance troupes to liven up the celebrations.
Before they left, the troupe formed four ‘lucky numbers’ using mandarin oranges, pineapple peel, spring onions, and bananas — 0770.
