Fergus Falls Newborn Born At 8:08 On 08/08/08

FERGUS FALLS, Minn. (AP) ― Hailey Jo Hauer was born on on the eighth day of the eighth month of 2008. At 8:08 a.m. And you're not going to believe what she weighed.
  
Yes: eight pounds, eight ounces.
  
When staff at Lake Region Hospital in Fergus Falls told Lindsay Hauer the time of her daughter's birth, "I think they were just joking," she said. Then, still in the operating room, she got a call from the birthing suite where Haily Joe was being measured and weighed.
  
When hospital staff in the operating room heard that Hailey Jo weighed in at eight pounds eight ounces, several resolved to buy lottery tickets later in the day.
