California Lottery Closes Rabbit Foot Factory

Pity the poor rabbit. Proverbially suffering death and dismemberment for the increased luck of others, the lowly bunny has, for sure, made its offering to the greater karma of the universe. But now, thanks to the California Lottery’s newest scratch ticket, Red Hot 7’s, luck, apparently, is no longer needed.

And because luck is no longer needed, there is no longer a need for places like the Rabbit Foot Factory which, courtesy of David & Goliath, has been shut down much to the benefit of our foot-giving, fuzzy friends.
