I never heard of 103 being an unlucky number, but numbers are just numbers...thats it. If it wasn't 103 then it would be 57. 13 is considered as an unlucky number and that goes all the way back to the last supper where there were the 12 deciples + Jesus and thats 13, after the last supper was when Jesus died. There's 13 knots (loops) in a hangmans noose, 13 steps going up to the gallows...and they all lead to death.

The number 13 has been considered unlucky for a long time, and by people all over the world. The early Romans thought 13 was a sign of death and destruction. And according to Norse mythology, if you sat 13 people down at a table, that was very unlucky. (Why? At a banquet of 12 people in Valhalla, an intruder -number 13 - caused the death of Balder's son Odin). The number of people at the last supper of Christ and the twelve Apostles confirmed the superstition about the number 13 in withes were believed to meet in "covens" that hat 13 members.
The fear of the number 13 is called triskaidekaphobia. Many hotels have no room 13, and many buildings have no 13th floor. Next time you fly, see if there is a row 13 in the plane. As date, 13 isn't too lucky either, especially when it falls on Friday. That was always thought of as a really bad day to start a new project or to begin a ship voyage. Movers, doctors and dentists say their business drops on Friday the 13th. The good news is that a maximum of three Friday the 13th can occur in a year, and sometimes there is just one.
But all this is just crap.
All days are the same.....thrs no particualr day thts lucky or unlucky!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was unaware of that.... I thought 13 was "bad luck" (Though my mother grew up in a house numbered 13 and it happens to be a lucky number for her.)
By the way......
