**** This game could be seen as Atlanta's revenge for the 1991 World Series, a 7-game thriller won by the Minnesota Twins over the Atlanta Braves, where the home team won every game. Thus, the Falcons were able to do in January 1999 what the Braves could not do in October 1991 - win in the Metrodome when it mattered the most.

* Hockey has a slew of playoff superstitions and defying them is often seen as courting disaster. Players (and some fans) often stop shaving during the playoffs in order to grow a playoff beard; shaving one is seen to invite disaster. Similarly, the Stanley Cup is considered to be a "jealous trophy", and touching any other trophy will ensure that you lose in the finals; accordingly, many team captains do not accept or handle the Prince of Wales Trophy or the Clarence S. Campbell Bowl (awarded to the Stanley Cup finalists from the Eastern and Western conferences respectively) after winning them in the conference finals.

It's also considered very bad luck to touch the Cup itself until you've actually won it.

** In one game at Philadelphia in 1989, the Pittsburgh Pirates took a 10–0 lead in the first inning, prompting their radio announcer Jim Rooker to declare on the air, "If we don't win this one, I don't think I'd want to be on that plane ride home. Matter of fact, if we don't win, I'll walk back to Pittsburgh." The Phillies ended up rallying and won 15–11. Rooker kept his word by going on a two-week, 340-mile charity walk from Philadelphia to Pittsburgh later that year.

** At the start of the 1934 season, the New York Giants' player-manager Bill Terry was asked by reporters to size up his team's competition in the National League. After naming the Cardinals, Pirates, and Cubs as the teams they would have to beat, Terry facetiously added: "I was just wondering, is Brooklyn still in the league?" While he meant for the crack to be lighthearted, the Brooklyn Dodgers and their fans took deep and immediate offense, and vowed to get revenge when the opportunity presented itself. Came the final weekend of the season, and the Giants were neck and neck with the Cardinals at the top of the standings, with just two games left to play -- against the Dodgers. Sure enough, Brooklyn took both games to deny their rivals the pennant, with their fans giddily shouting toward the Giants' dugout: "Hey, Terry! Is Brooklyn still in the league? ''Is Brooklyn still in the league?!!'' "
