12/5/2003: Thais prepare feast for monkeys



The Thai town of Lopburi has a monkey population of about 3,000. In 1989 a local businessman somehow came to the notion that the monkeys were responsible for his good fortune. So he started having an annual banquet for them. It has grown and now the monkeys are offered 4,400 pounds of fruits and vegetables in two rounds of nine-course dinners.

And Pepsi.
