Sakon Nakhon UFO sighting

I'm not buying it


  The story first appeared on Thai television,
  then a clip on You Tube.

  A picture purportedly taken with
  a telephone camera at Sawang Dindaeng.
  Supposedly it happened on a school sport day.
  Only one camera caught the image.

  Makes me suspicious.

  Viewed the image at 400% and I'm convinced:
  It's computer enhanced




I'm not the only one who suspects this is staged

Sakon Nakhon FC renamed

Sakon Nakhon FC renamed "Sakon Nakhon Muang Thai FC"

It stands to reason that the club has a new sponsor.  Muang Thai is an insurance company.
With a sponsor, the team may retain their better players and this could be the year the team excels.
Sakon Nakhon Muang Thai FC travels to Udon Thani for a preseason game there, tomorrow, January 5.
A home preseason game against Udon Thani  is scheduled for January 13, 3:30 PM (postponed from Jan 12) and the Patana field.
Team player selection will be finalized and contracts signed on January 18.
January 18 is also the day Patana school will have it's sport day, with a parade on I.T.U.
That week will be quite busy with local sport events. 
Two (independent) Futsal competitions begin January 14.
One of the Futsal competitions includes the team I am sponsoring.
When I was shown the order for the jerseys, I expected each player's name on the jersey, not my name on every shirt in huge letters.

Money Trees


Dong Ma Fai district. Video by djwave sakon
There's a whole lot of money being carried in this parade.
All destined to a local temple, Wat Wong.
Some parade goers seemed overly happy.  The I spotted the Leo and realized why.

The floor is a bit chilly right now.

Feels like 8C
Glad the fireworks are done
