LaContessa, I have always liked the number 17, in any case I'm not a superstitious person, in life we all experience good and bad luck, that's life

I would have guessed 15 - the ides of March and Caesar and all that . . .
Just look at the comments - every culture has a different idea of what's lucky and unlucky. Proves that numbers themselves have no power, only the power superstitious people give them.

as a Leeds United fan this superstition is well known because our previous crazy Italian chairman Massimo Cellino removed the no 17 shirt and wouldn't go to matches of they were on the 17th. he actively attempted to get games moved to another day if the fixtures he'll on the 17th.

13 is considered unlucky for most people but for us Chinese, it is very lucky because it sounds like life. 14 is unlucky because it sounds like certain death.
