The two unlucky entities combine to make one super unlucky day. I didnt recognize yday it's going to be 13 and friday until my colleagues start discussing about dress theme for devils day. You know guys i heard that If you have 13 letters in your name, you will have the devil's luck . think few famous personalities has 13 letters in theri names.... better you guys count the letters in your full name right now! ;)

Friday the thirteenth is considered the unluckiest of days in many superstitions, unless you were born on Friday the thirteenth in which case it is your lucky day :-).

Pulled out interesting facts about 13th :-

The fear of Friday the 13th is called paraskavedekatriaphobia or paraskevidekatriaphobia, a specialized form of triskaidekaphobia, a phobia (fear) of the number thirteen.

More than 80 percent of high-rises lack a 13th floor.
Many airports skip the 13th gate.
Airplanes have no 13th aisle.
Hospitals and hotels regularly have no room number 13.
Italians omit the number 13 from their national lottery.
Many cities do not have a 13th Street or a 13th Avenue.
