One definition of luck: when a meteor is spotted in the air, and tracked enough that you can determine approximately where any pieces of it will hit the planet. And then, double luck, a piece of the glowing chunk of asteroid or moon (or something) hits someone's roof loud enough to be noticed.
That's exactly what happened.

Miocene shark teeth at Calvert Cliffs one day).
