After the announcement of the government lottery results for the draw on 1 April 2026 GMT+7, the two-digit prize was number 47, which matches the age of the late famous comedian. Neng Mengjai.
This caused everyone attending the funeral who had bought lottery tickets to win, including Mr. Mongkol Saadboonphat, also known as Mr. The Comedian. This well-known comedian, who was close to Neng, was recently interviewed by Jack Green from Thairath Entertainment about his feelings after winning.
Asked about the lottery winning with Neng's age number?
“Absolutely. Yesterday I told people to buy it. I said Neng’s age is 47, which is also the coffin number. Did I buy many? Just three tickets, all from his age number.”
Brother Ball Chernyim said he won too and thanked Neng a lot?
“Brother Ball probably bought more than me. Sister Jang and others probably bought as well. Yesterday during a live stream, I told people to buy Neng’s age number just in case, even though it had appeared before. I also bought the coffin number 2112, but the winning number was 14, so that didn’t hit. Getting this much is already good enough.”
So it’s considered that Neng brought luck?
“Yes, it’s okay. We helped out at the funeral, so it feels comforting (laughs). It wipes away everything else. It’s all settled now.”
What would you like to say to fans, many of whom probably won with Neng’s age number?
“I’d like to ask everyone to go make merit for Neng. His real name is ‘Arthit Meemak.’ Please dedicate your good deeds to him.”
Did you have any sense beforehand that Neng would bring you luck this draw?
“I wasn’t entirely sure it would come out, but I felt more inclined to buy than usual. When I got numbers from here and there, I was indifferent, but this time several things made me think, ‘Hey, I have to buy.’ So I did.”
If you could say something to Neng, what would it be?
“Thank you very much, brother. Thanks for the snack money, travel money, and fuel money. I will definitely use this money to make merit. I’m going to release fish and will post a video.”
Are you a new millionaire now?
“Oh, don’t call me a new millionaire. Both my husband and I won. We each bought our own tickets.”
