Ouija Board Fake-Out
A true story from the stoned college days
Lloyd, George, and I were smoking pot (towel under the door, check) when one of us produced a Ouija board.
This was a Kentucky Derby Saturday in May.
“Ask the Ouija board who’s gonna win.” I forget who said it.
So we did, and it gave us a horse! (Well, a number, which corresponded to a horse.)
Before rushing off to Off Track Betting, Lloyd said, “Wait! Ask the board if she’s capable of lying.”
‘She’ said YES. So we asked again for the winner. A new number came up.
The ride to OTB was scary, considering the driver was so stoned his eyes were like slits.
We bet on that second horse. The first horse won.
Yup, the Ouija board was definitely capable of lying. And didn’t like the question!
