TOASTED CHEESE VIRGIN MARY...

OK. So about 10 years ago, a lady made a grilled cheese sandwich, and after taking a bite, realized that the toasting pattern in the bread resembled the Virgin Mary (actually, I think it looks like Bernadette Peters, but whatever...) So this lady kept the sandwich, and it brought her good luck - she won $70,000 at a casino shortly thereafter. She has recently sold it to a casino for $27,000 via ebay. This is the kind of thing that makes America great.

Can't you just see the screenplay for this - woman makes a grilled cheese sandwich, it looks like the Virgin Mary, she suddenly can't lose at the casino, the casino buys said sandwich, ostensibly to use it to generate money for charity, but actually because they're tired of losing money to the cheese-sandwich lady, but since they've bought it with greed in mind, it's bad luck, so they devise all these schemes to get rid of it, but it keeps showing up, and then finally, some janitor or something eats it, and the casino goes bankrupt. or something.
