Scary Story

My baseball team and I played this baseball tournament and there was this black out in the bottom of the 6th inning, score tied at 6-6. When the black out happened, I was playing second base, and the catcher was just about to throw down the ball on a steal, when the power went out. All of the other score boards went out, and this was what the score board read-

Home Innning Away

6 6 6

So of coarse, being at the age I am, a black out when the score board reads 666 is pretty freaky. What made it worse was that all the other score boards went out but ours. Somehow all the other power was out and our score board stayed on. That was just really freaky, thought I would share.

Oh, by the way, if you want to share a frealy story, go right ahead.

That's funny. Ah the impresionable youth of today's society. I remember when the daily pick (lottery, three numbers)came out 666, they played scary music when they showed it. I wonder how many Goth people won that day?

It is not a silly superstition! That is the Mark of the Beast, AKA The Antichrist. Although I think it was just a coincidence, and wouldn't worry about it. Now if one of your team members suddenly began spinning their head all the way around and vomiting pea soup, then I would be worried.

Boom! That's a strange story. Did anyone get a picture? Try and get one and post it here! Here's a good one. When my mom turned 13, it was Friday the 13th. She got a parakeet and it died 13 days later. Oh, her birth month is the 13th month. (scary music plays. Wait, there is no 13th month, but the rest is true).

Just a few tidbits here. First of all, 666 is actually not the number of the beast, well, not literally at least. 666 is the number of man, and the number that the third antichrist will bear when he or she destroys mankind. The actual number of Satan is 9. Yet, still, the story told is kind of strange, I wonder if anyone else (parents, other ballplayers) noticed this. Anyway, going on, I've had a few incidents like that before. In Illinois fairly recently, we also had a pick three lotto number of 666. Also, I remember one time I was going to see Pantera and Slayer, later that day, when all of a sudden the power went out at my house (seconds before I left to go to the show) well, I don't know what it is with the power going out and 666, but that's what all of the digital clocks that I could see from where I was read, not the blank screen or whatever, but 666. That kinda freaked me out.

Ah, nothing like being scared by a man-made drawing appearing three times in a row on a score board. Way to be.
