+briansnat Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 I was out placing a cache yesterday and when I marked the coords I noticed that both the N and W ended in 013. I'm not usually the superstitious sort, but something about it also being Friday the 13th gave me pause. I guess some people would have jumped at the good stroke of luck and played it up in the cache name or description, but it was just too weird for me so I moved it. Just wondering what everyone else would have done. Quote Link to comment
+Ambrosia Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 Well, since my husband and I went out for the first time on a Friday the 13th, it's always been special to us. We try and have a date/special time on Friday the 13th. I'm not superstitious, and combined with the specialness of the date for us, I would have happily kept it. Quote Link to comment
+SimbaJamey Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 I'd be putting on my tinfoil hat!!!!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment
+TMDMom Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 I'm not superstitious, but I probably would have taken a few more readings...just to see what I'd get. Off topic, but my son went to a birthday party yesterday for a boy who turned 13 on Friday the 13th. The theme? Superstitions. Quote Link to comment

bogleman Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 I would have placed it and had fun with the listing. I've placed 1 cache with special numbers and a special reason - I guess I'm the only one who gets it Quote Link to comment
+uxorious Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 I was born on a Friday the thirteenth, so I've never considered it an unlucky day. However, that might explain why some of my friends and family think it is. Quote Link to comment
AZcachemeister Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 I would have kept the location, and played it to the hilt! Quote Link to comment
Luckless Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 Works okay for me- my birthday. Quote Link to comment
+SimbaJamey Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 You could name the cache "Triskadecaphobia" Quote Link to comment
+DrgnTrappr Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 Oh I would have definatly left it there, and played on the whole bad luck theme. Just think of the stories finders could have told when they logged the find or DNF. Quote Link to comment
+SgtSue Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 It would have not bothered me at all, but if it was three 6s I would have been freaked. That would be a cache I wouldn't place or hunt. But 13, that could be fun. Quote Link to comment

+Sparticus06 Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 If it werent for bad luck, I would have no luck at all. Me, I would have left the cache right there. Quote Link to comment
