Every week I enter Menards's contest to win a $1000 shopping spree.
Every week I fail to win. ("Lose" is too negative a word for me.)
Every week there are 2 possible outcomes:
Win
Not win
Every week for the last year or so I have a 50% chance of winning.
The odds against my not-win record are 2^52 to 1.
Clearly, there is a conspiracy against me.
I bet @Polymath257 has some rip'n good yarns about probability.
