My experience with Fortune Tellers
I have been going to fortune tellers since I have been in high school. Sometimes they just say general things that can be true of anyone and then you get the really good ones who are spot on. I went to a psychic on the Point Pleasant Boardwalk who was so spot on my mouth dropped. I was with a boyfriend at the time named Jim. Jim was very Italian looking with dark hair and blue eyes.
The fortune teller told me the initials of the guy I would be marrying and told me he would have very light hair. She went on to tell me that I would have one child. When Jim went in for his reading she told him that he would have three kids. Of course, at the time, I thought how could that be, Jim and I got different readings. Well her prediction was 100 percent correct. Jim and I moved on from each other and married other people. My husband has the initials and blonde hair just as described! To my surprise, her prediction of the number of kids we would have also turned out to be correct. Who would have thought a fortune teller found on the Jersey Shore boardwalk could ever predict my life so precisely?
Fortune Telling Crab
It seems like fortune tellers at the Jersey Shore are good at predicting pretty much everything. Some of them are not in human form which could seem a little scary because it’s totally out of the ordinary! Trust me, I’ve had my fair share of psychics, people reading my palms, and seers telling me what my tarot cards say. I never imagined consulting with a crustacean for insights into the future—especially not a crab from the Jersey Shore!
The SEA LIFE New Jersey Aquarium has a spider crab with a crystal ball!
According to Pix11.com, it appears this special crab has a knack for predicting football outcomes! This New Jersey psychic crab has accurately predicted the outcomes of Jets and Giants games all season. The staff at the aquarium decided to get help from their clairvoyant crustacean by predicting the outcome between the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers.
They presented their talented crab friend with the symbolic helmets of both teams and watched as he made his prediction. They watched his claws scuttle over to one particular helmet, leaving no doubt in anyone’s mind about his choice—the Chiefs are destined to win!
The SEA LIFE Aquarium, where the crab resides, will name it after the winning quarterback. With football fortunes being decided by a crab, our NJ Lottery slogan holds true, anything can happen in New Jersey!
7 Super Early Super Bowl Contenders for Next Season
I know it’s probably early to talk about the Super Bowl for next season, but really, is it? I actually don’t think it’s ever too early to start speculating and wishing for your team to make it all the way next year. This year was so very close for my team, the Detroit Lions. But, no cigar. So, maybe next year will be our year. But, aside from the Lions, there are other teams that are on target to be major contenders next season. Some of them didn’t even make the playoffs this year. So, what are some early Super Bowl contenders for next season?
Before we get into those contenders, let’s look at why next season is already shaping up to be so exciting. For me, the main reason is because a whopping seven teams have new head coaches. That’s really going to change the makeup of those teams. The Atlanta Falcons have brought on Raheem Morris. The Carolina Panthers have Dave Canales. The Las Vegas Raiders have knabbed Antonio Pierce. The Los Angeles Chargers have Jim Harbaugh. The New England Patriots have promoted Jerod Mayo. The Seattle Seahawks have brought on Mike Macdonald. The Tennessee Titans have hired Brian Callahan. Finally, The Washington Commanders have hired Dan Quinn.
Of those new coaches, the most interesting to me is Harbaugh for the Chargers. For Harbaugh, this is his final shot at the Vince Lombardi trophy. He just won a national championship with the Michigan Wolverines, and now, he wants a Super Bowl victory. He has a chance with the Chargers’ stellar quarterback Justin Herbert. But, it will take time, in my opinion. I mean, it could take time with any of these teams with new coaches. That said, the Houston Texans had a rookie coach this year in DeMeco Ryans, and they almost went all the way, so all things are possible.
Let’s get into seven early Super Bowl contenders for next season with my commentary.
