As detailed on The Other Wiki here, the number 47 has become an in joke among groups of mathematicians and screenwriters, improbable as the crossover may seem.
Examples of The 47 Society include:
- One of the biggest users is the Star Trek franchise, to the point of having a page on its wiki.
- The protagonist of the Hitman series.
- Subverted by HK-47 from Knights of the Old Republic, who is named after the AK-47. Same goes for the multitude of fictional guns with 47 in the name.
- As most (all?) the writers of the League of Intergalactic Cosmic Champions were Star Trek fans 47s were a big in joke there too.
