essen, germany Lottery winner flushes £330,000
down toilet ‘so no one else could have it’
What would you do if you won the lottery? Tell your boss
to get stuffed? Jet off somewhere hot to beat the January
blues? For many of us, cracking open some bubbly
would be high on the agenda – but if your numbers do
come up, you’ll want to avoid following the example of
Angela Maier.
The delighted 63-year-old downed five bottles of
champagne a few days after her £330,000 windfall…
before drunkenly tearing the cash into pieces and
flushing it down the toilet. Mrs Maier’s win on the
German national lottery prompted the care home where
her husband died to send her a bill towards his medical
expenses, a court heard in her home city of Essen. She
opened the letter after downing the champers and –
becoming angry – destroyed the cash rather than have
some of it taken from her. Mrs Maier may have made up
the story to avoid paying the bills but it would be difficult
to prove, the court heard. She agreed to pay £3,300 in
compensation to settle the case.
bulawayo, zimbabwe A goblin in a suitcase? Is
this the most bizarre story ever?
An early favourite for the most bizarre/amusing story
of the year involves a creepy goblin apparently jumping
out of a suitcase in Zimbabwe. According to reports in
the southern Africa country, police officers in the city of
Bulawayo ran for their lives when the strange creature
hopped out of a blood-filled bottle. A family, who arrived
at the station with a traditional healer, claimed the goblin
belonged to a tenant who was staying with them.
‘We heard some screaming from the charge office and
most officers who had knocked off rushed to see what
was happening,’ said one police officer apparently said.
‘At first everyone gathered around the suitcase, wanting
to see what was inside.’
He added: ‘No one told anyone it was time to run. One
minute, the charge office was full, the next, it was empty.
‘I think some people went out through the windows
because we could not all have fitted through the door.
Fat cops and slim cops all ran for their lives screaming.’
The healer managed to overpower the goblin before
burning it to death (apparently).
