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 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:
