Silly gambling superstition. $50 bills are frogs, and allegedly unlucky. I’m not superstitious. I’ll take piles of them.

When I was in college and started going to the horse track I got to be friends with some older guys that were always there and got me free admission to the turf club.Wow. I did not know this.
The part in the story about $50 bills being found on people taken out by the mafia is interesting.
They were old-school. If any of the tellers tried to pay them winnings with a $50 bill they wouldn’t even touch it. They’d make them give them smaller or higher denominations
