    I think this one can be a superstition or not, depending on how committed you are to it, for sure this is a super common event on many / most teams but if you absolutely HAVE to do it with every team member on every single shot then it's an obsession and superstition !

    I can take it or leave it, I'll do it with my team mates some of the opposing team, and friends on adjacent lanes, but not all the time, I don't have to do it so it's not a superstition, in my case.

    What about a rabbits foot, or having to keep some change in your front pocket, I've bowled with a few guys that have to do those things.

    I take up jackpots, the money comes back to me in envelopes. Twelve or thirteen hundred dollars. I turn every bill face up all turned the same direction. I can't stand it when it on bill one way and the next another.
    Other than that I have no superstitions. Yours is silly mine is real..... Ever heard that before?

    I bowled with a couple of guys that were bankers, the money in the envelope had to be the same way, arranged by denomination, all faced up and in the same direction....no exceptions! They always counted it at least twice too ......

    I started doing it when I was 12 years old in 1958 and delivered newspapers.
    I don't expect others to put their money in any curtain way I just do it for myself. I have had people laugh at me for doing it.

    I can't stand my money not being in order. All facing same way, all in order by value. Makes it easier to know what I have
