Tom Europe wore #13 for us in the 90s.Robbie wrote:I do not know if this is a superstition among athletes - can anyone confirm?
Since the number 13 is considered an unlucky number in many cultures, do players refrain from wearing that number?
Are there any famous athletes wearing #13?
The only one I can think of off the top of my head is Teemu Selanne, who wore it when he won rookie of the year with the Winnipeg Jets. But he now wears #8 with Anaheim.
Mats Sundin and Bill Guerin in the NHL.
I'm sure there's tons to be found if one bothered to research these things (e.g., annual NHL almanacs).
