The Daily Feud: Are you feeling lucky, punk? by Eleanor of Aquitaine [Game over]

Drat! (Actually, probably for the best since I screwed the pooch on question 9. No one else thought of slots as a casino game?)

It’s not a game, it’s a mechanical tranquilizer.

Dolores – are you going to count “athletes” and “baseball players” as the same or different for #7?

  1. Shamrock
  2. Break a mirror
  3. Throw salt over your shoulder
  4. Blessed
  5. Blow out all the candles on birthday cake
  6. Reading palms
  7. Baseball players
  8. Four of a kind
  9. Roulette
  10. Ace of spades

ETA: Darn, missed again!

  1. Rabbit’s foot
  2. Breaking a mirror
  3. Salt over shoulder
  4. Fortunate
  5. Before blowing out candles on a bday cake
  6. Tarot cards
  7. Builders
  8. Royal flush
  9. Craps
  10. Ace of spades

Awwwwww. I’ve been eliminated.
(10 cool points to whoever knows where I found that paraphrased phrase)

  1. rabbit’s foot
  2. breaking mirror
  3. throwing salt over shoulder
  4. fortunate
  5. blowing out birthday candles
  6. reading tealeaves
  7. sportspeople
  8. no idea

The same.

Damn! dead last.

Bummer! I would have done really well on this one!

That’s where I was a few days ago … and today I came in #47. Damn. I thought I’d done better than that. Gah.

Third? THIRD? Woo hoo! My best placement yet in a Doper feud!!!

What can I say? This must be my… lucky day. :wink:

Thanks, Eleanor and Dolores!

Eat my dust, suckers! :smiley:

Blearg. My worst finish ever! Not my lucky day! I blame the baccarat.

BOO-YAH!!! :smiley:

Now if I can only get this lucky on the slots!

Great Feud, Dolores & Eleanor!

When forming this one, the first superstitious profession I thought of was sailors, but on reflection I guessed athletes were more familiar.

tarragon918, I didn’t know you were supposed to knock on the wood three times. I’ve only been knocking twice - maybe that’s what’s wrong with my life.

7! That’s my best yet! And in the last Feud I was in, I think I placed 9!
