Lucky Day?

John Stephens considered himself a lucky guy. And on July 7th he joined all of the other gamblers in heading out to tracks, casinos, slot machine parlors, etc. in order to take advantage of the luckiest day of the year, perhaps of their lives. But John believed that he was special because 7 was his personal lucky number and was constantly discovering 7’s everywhere he went.

So John drove from his home to the local racetrack in hopes of being one of the luckiest people in the world, on this specific day. He had money in is pocket and was looking for a sign, any sign, that would tell him who he needed to bet on.

John had just gotten his tax return back, and it was for $777, another sign that he was on the right track – so he ran to the bank to cash the check and get his money.

So John took his $777 dollars with him to the track determined to turn it into big bucks, and when he got there he was surprised, and excited to find, that the track had a horse running in the 7th race called “Lucky Seven.”

John decided that you can’t beat those odds and went to the window to bet on Lucky 7 in the seventh race, and bet all $777 on the race - and then waited for the race to begin.

Imagine his surprise when Lucky 7, in the seventh race, came in number 7.
