Talk:2023 Japan Series

Curse of KFC / Colonel Sanders?
Interesting story. To add, or not to add? – Muboshgu (talk) 15:54, 5 November 2023 (UTC)


 * I added a small mention of it in the "Series notes" section and debated adding more. I looked to the 2016 World Series article and it didnt really mention that curse and the 2004 World Series only had a couple lines about that curse. Also, some believe the curse of the colonel was broken when the Tigers won the CL pennant in 2003 as the statue was thrown in the river when the team wom the league, not the series. Ultimately I decided not to dwell on it in the article other than throw in a mention and a link. If others disagree though, I don't think more about it would hurt. I don't think it should dominate the article though. --T orsodo gTalk 17:25, 5 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Ah I hadn't noticed as I just did a quick CTRL+F search that showed that "KFC", "Colonel", and "Sanders" don't appear in the article. I also didn't realize that Curse of the Colonel had its own page, let alone that its GA. That may be enough here, or a slight expansion explaining the "curse" wouldn't be amiss. I'm undecided. – Muboshgu (talk) 17:32, 5 November 2023 (UTC)
 * I might add a bit more about it in an "Afermath" section that calls it out a bit more explicitly. Fans threw someone dressed as Sanders in the river again and it could be a fun way to mention it and wrap it up. I need to find some sources for it though. Let me know what you think about it once I'm done with it here in a few --T orsodo gTalk 18:05, 5 November 2023 (UTC)
