"I love fishing! I’ve fished all my life, and I have a couple of fish rings that bring me good luck. I wear the rings when I go to the casino. I go to the dice table, and I'll stand and rub on my fish rings while I think about the number I want to roll. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't, but I'll keep wearing them!"

"My lucky charms are two black rubber bracelets that I have on my left wrist all the time! I never take them off. They are lucky to me because my mother and sister wear them also on their left wrists. I don’t know if they’re lucky all the time, but I’d feel weird if I didn’t have them on!"

"My lucky charm would have to be my ‘Faith, Hope, Courage’ charm. It was given to me by my wonderful mother. Some time ago there was a dark period in my life. I had lost my way and didn’t know what to do. After Mom gave this charm to me, I was lucky enough to regain my faith, restore my hope and find the courage to ‘fix’ my life. I thank God every day for the charm that Mom chose to give to me and for the woman that He chose to be my mother."

"I got a pair of diamond earrings on Valentine’s Day two years ago this February, and I will not wear any other earrings. The only reason I will take them out is to clean them! They are my first pair of diamonds ever."

"My lucky charm is my two-year-old daughter. I know that it sounds so generic, but honestly, she is. My happiest times are definitely when I’m with her. She makes me smile when I’m sad, and she definitely brings me good luck when I need it the most. I guess you could say that I’m at my best every day! Everything I do and all the decisions that I make are all based on how they will influence our lives, but most of all, hers. I love her with all my heart. My daughter, Chadea’ Gipson, is my ‘good luck charm.'"
