Umm, no. For a while, the commercials for the Olympics have said "8. 8. 8." Or 8.08.08, or whatever.
When I first saw this date, I immediately thought of 666.

You'll be amazing how many local weddings there will be tomorrow xD
Btw, 8 is considered lucky because its pronunciation sounds similar to luck. Unfortunately, in Cantonese, it's pronounced similar to "Fukfukfuk"

The word for "eight" (八,æŒ) in Chinese (Pinyin: bÄ) sounds similar to the word which means "prosper" or "wealth" (å‘ - short for "å‘è´¢", Pinyin: fÄ). In regional dialects the words for "eight" and "fortune" are also similar, eg Cantonese "baat" and "faat".
There is also a resemblance between two digits, "88", and the shuang xi ('double joy'), a popular decorative design composed of two stylized characters 喜 (xi, 'joy', 'happiness').

Beywiki was spawned due to discontent with Beyblade Forums almost a year ago:
