Friday the 13th sounds unlucky ? Superstition ?

A Friday occurring on the 13th day of any month is considered to be a day of bad luck in English and Portuguese-speaking cultures around the world. And similar superstitions exist in some other traditions.

Some people are so paralyzed by fear that they are simply unable to get out of bed when Friday the 13th rolls around. The Stress Management Center and Phobia Institute estimates that more than 17 million people are affected by a fear of this day.

But somebody did win money, check out the news on CNN.com :

Try your luck on the coming Friday 13th, any month and any year. Who knows it will be your turn.:confused:

i don't believe in that stuff at all.
I read a few weeks back that Monday 27th (in the UK, at least) was the most unlucky day. Due to the number of insurance claims done on that day.
