It's officially Lost Numbers Time, people! Today, 4/8/15, is the day when all of Lost's magical numbers— 4, 8, 15, 16, 23 and 42—align at 4:23:42 p.m. (military time...And we are posting this on East Coast time). Of course that means it's time to celebrate all things Lost because just like you, and Jack Shepard, we will never stop saying "WE HAVE TO GO BACK."

Haters gonna hate. But we will always love Lost.

But before we take a trip down the hatch memory lane, here's a little background on the Lost numbers. They were Hurley's lottery numbers and appeared pretty much everywhere: the flight number, on the back of uniforms, vials, car mileage, etc. Eventually, Lost revealed the numbers corresponded with Jacob's potential replacements, the numbers were the degree on the lighthouse dial that corresponded with the mirrors into each potential replacement's life.  Locke (Terry O'Quinn) was 4, Hurley (Jorge Garcia) was 8, Sawyer (Josh Holloway) was 15, Sayid (Naveen Andrews) was 16, Jack (Matthew Fox) was 23 and Jin (Daniel Dae Kim) was 42.

To celebrate this momentous occasion 10 years in the making (yes, Lost premiered over 10 years ago) we're looking back on Lost moments we'll never forget. Those numbers aren't the only things that stuck with us all these years!
