I just realized that it’s another Friday the 13th. Did you know that we have another one this year? It’s in November. I am not superstitious in any way shape or form, but I am into trivia.
Here are some fun facts about Friday the 13th:
- Every 11 years there are three Friday the 13ths in one year.
- Triskaidekaphobia is fear of the number 13.
- Many buildings don’t have a 13th floor.
- There are 11 Friday the 13th movies made.
- There are no rooms numbered 13 in many hospitals and hotels.
- Paraskavedekatriaphobia or Friggatriskaidekaphobia is the fear of Friday the 13th.
Any other trivia that you know of?
I’m not superstitious about the number 13. In fact, in the early 1990′s, a group of us that worked together won the Florida Lottery with the number 13 in our numbers.
It is the number 666 that I do not like.

Yes, Shirley that’s one number I wouldn’t fool with either. I almost had that number as part of my phone number but when I told the phone company they said I didn’t have to take it.
