This article is from a New Jersey newspaper. It's about superstition. http://www.nj.com/sports/ledger/index.s ... 118650.xml

Scroll down to number 11. They talk about Al being superstious, then they make a joke that if you play "Biggest Ball of Twine in Minnesota" backwards, Al makes a prediction that the Yankees will win the World Series. Pretty silly.
Oh by the way, I've cracked the code.

Oh yeah? If the Yankees win the series this year, guess how many championships they'll have:







27



(Cue suspenseful music)

Silly is good, of course, but is there any indication that Al is superstitious at all, or is the whole paragraph a joke? The only thing I've heard anything about, and I don't even know if they really do it, is something about the band gathering before a concert to throw ice cubes in a toilet?

That's a lot of points for an easy score, considering that most rooms that have a toilet in them aren't very big. :biggrin:
