I knew your thought was a guess. Was just having some fun with the subject myself. I too have wondered why such an odd number to a stick. I have never really gotten into collecting dice but I do pick some up whenever I see them at the gift shops. The first time I just grabbed some then when I noticed the numbers on them I looked the next time at the gift shop and was able to find some with corresponding (consecutive) numbers. Then I found at another hotel that there were a couple dice with the same numbers in the bucket. So I figured that the numbers were for pairs. So I picked dice with matching numbers. Then, now, I find that the numbers, I think, correspond to a stick. Thus, are there five dice all with the same numbers?
