7-7-07 Great day for Hard Rock Biloxi
There was a great article about the upcoming 7/7/07, the links is posted below. I basically took out my favorite parts (about Las Vegas and Biloxi). I also want to add that it is the day of my birthday, 27.
That date — the almost numerically perfect 7/7/07 — is being sought after by couples around the country as the ideal day for a wedding. More than 31,000 couples have already signed up with Theknot.com, a wedding-planning Web site, saying they plan to marry that day, a figure that is roughly triple the number for any other Saturday that month — and nearly 20,000 more than the number of couples who got married on the corresponding weekend last year.
And it isn’t only prospective spouses who think that the 7-7-7 combination could be lucky for them. The travel site Vegas.com said its hotel reservations for the weekend starting Friday, July 6, are about six times greater than those for the previous weekend.
“We’ve never seen anything like this,” said Bryan Allison, vice president of marketing for Vegas.com. “We were all shocked.”
Meanwhile, the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Biloxi, Miss., originally scheduled to open just days after Hurricane Katrina hit, says it plans to open July 7.
William Hill, the noted British bookmaker, has placed the odds at 7-to-1 that Tony Blair will resign on that date.
