Double quads

It's hard to get quads (four of a kind). Of the 17,687 hands of MTT NLHE I've played so far in my career, I've only gotten quads 16 times. That's less than a tenth of 1 percent. Imagine my surprise when I not only got quads last night, I got them twice. What's more, both quads were in the same MTT! If that's not being smiled upon by the poker gods, I don't know what is. On the strength of my double quads, I got under the lights again, and finished in fourth.
