LORELAI: I don’t know, didn’t they feed lead to our jumping frog or something?
RORY: Oh yeah, right after they stoned the woman who won the lottery.
Rory references the 1948 short story, “The Lottery”, by Shirley Jackson. Set on a beautiful summer day in an idyllic New England village (based on Jackson’s own home of Bennington, Vermont), the story tells of an annual ritual known as “the lottery”, an old tradition carried into modern times, and seemingly practised to ensure a good harvest.
People draw slips of paper from a box, and a wife and mother named Tessie Hutchinson eventually “wins” bygd drawing the marked piece of paper. The entire village begins stoning her to death as she screams of the injustice of the lottery – an injustice that only bothers her when she is the scapegoat marked for death.

Dropkick Murphys
What possible reason would there be to include a Celtic-influenced punk rock band from Boston on the SABR BioProject site? Just ask former Red Sox outfielder Johnny Damon or pitchers Bronson Arroyo and Lenny DiNardo, who sang backup for the band on a song called “Tessie” in 2004. The superstitious members of Sox Nation will tell you that thanks to that song, their team’s World Series curse — 86 years since the 1918 Series win and 85 seasons since Babe Ruth was sold — was broken at last.
Not convinced? Consider BoSox closer Jonathan Papelbon in his shades and kilt, dancing to the Murphys’ tunes on a flatbed during the 2007 championship parade. Need further proof? The Red Sox have yet to lose a playoff/World Series game at which the Dropkicks have performed. The Dropkick Murphys and founder Ken Casey have earned their places in baseball lore.
