There once was a fellow--may have been a relative of mine--who went to the races drunk and began getting up on a chair announcing the winner of the next race. He was right twice in a row and the third time a few people bet on his prediction. It won. On the fourth race fifteen or twenty people bet on his prediction. It won. On the fifth race a huge crowd of people mobbed the ticket window to bet on his prediction. It lost. Thanks! I am pretty impressed with myself so far. Wish I had put some money on it.
