@salopianhistorian: Did you know about this common tourist mistake in Prague? Visitors often rub the bronze panels of the Statue of St. John of Nepomuk on Charles Bridge for good luck, but many do it incorrectly!
Got it. Only the falling priest on the right panel brings good luck 👌👌👌

Explore Prague :
The "legend" was invented in 1990 by some students who charged people CZK 0.50 to touch the plaque for good luck. At the time a beer was CZK 2.50, so every five tourists equaled a free beer. In any pictures from before 1990, there is no visible wear on the plaques.
