5. C
In 1985, a Japanese baseball team from Oksaka called the Hanshin
Tigers won the Japanese League (they had a penchant for losing). Their
fans were ecstatic, and in their celebrations, they dumped a statue of X
into the Dotonori River, causing a curse that would dog them for 24
years.
From that day on, the Hanshin Tigers were said to be cursed by the
ghost of X, angry at the indignity of being banished to his watery,
polluted realm. Many of the Tigers’ fans probably thought the curse
was ridiculous, but as the 18-year losing streak broke records, opinion
began to turn as the Tigers’ were consistently placed bottom of the
league. An urban legend was born: The Tigers would not win the
championship again until the X was returned from the river.
