I'm honestly surprised this is just happening. A friend of mine got a fortune cookie a couple of days ago and the Lost numbers were his lucky numbers as well.
I think I read that something similar happened in Ireland a few years back.

I am finally watching Season 6. Just finished "Lighthouse" last night. At least now I know what the numbers referred to.
total kick to the gut
This is like having Ra's Al Ghul show up at your birthday party.

Would that be a bigger deal?
Fortune cookie fortunes and numbers are randomly printed and stuffed. It's almost as much a coincidence as me walking out of "The Matrix" at the theaters for the second time and a friend of mine (on his first viewing) saying, "I'm not answering that!" when one of the payphones out front rang.
Just that, in the years since the numbers were popularized, I'm surprised it's the first time they've come up as winning lotto numbers
It is just funny when pop culture and real life converges, for the briefest of moments.
