Bad Things Happen in Threes

This is another one you can chalk up to confirmation bias. People have a tendency to take notice of the bad stuff to support this theory but in actuality, there is usually the same balance of good and bad stuff happening to person at any given time.

Bird Poop Brings Good Luck

This superstition is believed to have originated in Russia. The good luck involved with a bird doing its business on you is supposedly just the simple fact that it happens so rarely that when it does, it’s a blessing. It’s also a sign that wealth is heading your way.

Dead Man's Hand

It’s considered bad luck in poker to be dealt a two-pair hand consisting of black eights and black aces (regardless of the hole card.) The dead man’s hand got its name because, according to legend, they were cards held by Wild Bill Hickok when he was murdered in the Old West in 1876.

The bar in the center is light gray turning to dark gray right? Wrong. It's all one shade of gray - an optical illusion due to the different shades of gray in the background

Rabbit's Foot

The idea of rabbits being lucky is part of Celtic lore. The idea sprung from the fact that they live underground, which made people at the time think they had a direct line of communication with the gods. In more recent times, the animal’s reputation for being fertile made rabbit-themed charms popular among women hoping to conceive. Most rabbit foot charms today are actually just made of fake fur and plastic, but the association is still there.

Wasn't very lucky for the rabbit.
