The number seven is considered a harbinger of good luck in many cultures, particularly in the west. That makes Saturday's rare 07-07-07 date on the calendar especially intriguing for people looking for a dose of good fortune. The fact that it falls on a Saturday makes the day especially ripe for big plans.
Couples saved this date for weddings more than a year in advance. It's also expected to boost ticket sales for Powerball, Mega Millions and other lottery games. Casinos are expecting big business. The group preparing to name the new seven wonders of the world will reveal the results of worldwide voting on Saturday. Al Gore's big Live Earth event was set for 7-7-07. And Papa John's will be giving out 777 free pizzas on Saturday for people who win their drawings (register here). Harrah's Casino also has similar plans. A lucky Olathe couple will celebrate their 70th anniversary on Saturday.
Hope the day is a lucky one for you!
