Stop me if you have already heard this story, but it was told to me as if it had happened to some relative of mine years ago.

He went to the races and either was, or became, drunk. He then began climbing up on a chair and announcing loudly the winner of the next race. The first time nobody paid any attention to him, and the horse won. He did it again, and the horse won. He did it again and several people put money on his pick. The horse won. He did it again, and quite a crowd gathered. They put their money on the horse, and the horse won. Next time there was a stampede to put money on his choice, many previous winners placing bets with all their winnings. The horse lost.
