Savannah’s Traffic Taboo: A Jinx on Journeys

Very few folks know that Savannah Guthrie, the esteemed journalist, harbors a unique superstition regarding travel. During a 2014 conversation on Today, she revealed that expressing contentment with traffic before reaching her destination might jinx it, leading to unexpected congestion. This idea stems from the notion that positive comments could inadvertently summon bad luck.

The concept of a “jinx” originated from the 17th-century word “jynx,” which referred to a bird linked to spells and enchantments. In modern times, it symbolizes a curse of misfortune, particularly when celebrating success too soon.
