twelveincher Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 When I was younger I had a preconception that our best or most exciting players would don the no.27 shirt. All of the shirts I had growing up had 27 on the back. Casting my mind back I’m not sure if there’s a great deal in it, but is it something anyone else noticed? Especially in the late 90’s early 00’s? 27 is a pretty random number for the back of a shirt for one of a teams better players so there must be something in it. McGrath, Baiano, Idiakez, Reich, Bueno, and obviously… Gary Teale. Chance, or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jram Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 The 27 conspiracy is a real thing. There’s a big rabbit hole on the internet (which i fell down once) all about exactly the fact that the number 27 pops up an usual amount in life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jram Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 I remember, this one time, I was walking along and thought “l wonder what time it is” and when I looked at my watch, it was exactly 27 minutes past. Pretty much every time I look at my watch now it seems to be 27 minutes past Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
