I don't think so. People said that you can also try "standing egg" at Chinese New Year day...

[spoiler=How to balance an egg]
Method 1
1) Make a small mound of salt on a hard, smooth, level surface.
2) Carefully balance the egg on top of the salt, then gently blow the excess salt away.
3) With patience and a steady hand, you should succeed in balancing the egg on its end. The egg is supported by unseen salt crystals that are held under the egg and this allows the egg to balance on its end effectively.

Method 2
1) You can try to balance and egg without the salt around an equinox. You can do it about March 20, on the spring equinox, or about September 23, on the autumn equinox. Some people believe that the gravitational pull of the Sun that occurs on the equinoxes can help keep an egg standing on its end.
2) Carefully balance the egg on a hard smooth surface. If it doesn't balance, then you can try another method.

Method 3
1) You could try balancing an egg by simply placing the egg on a rough textured surface or repeatedly using of an egg which will eventually lead to the ends of the egg becoming cracked or flattened.

Method 4
Another famous way for making an egg stand on end is the COLUMBUS METHOD. There is a popular story of how Christopher Columbus, having been told that discovering the Americas was no great accomplishment, challenged his critics to make an egg stand on its tip; and, after they gave up, he did it himself by tapping the egg on the table so as to flatten its tip. This may ruin your egg a bit, though.

Method 5
1) A Chinese folk belief that it is much easier to balance an egg on a smooth surface during Li Chun (the official first day of spring in the Chinese lunar calendar, which usually falls on February 4 or 5), than at any other time of the year.
2) You can, with time and patience, supposedly balance an egg on a smooth surface.
3) To quote Wikipedia, "Japanese physicist Ukichiro Nakaya verified experimentally that eggs in fact can be balanced with ease at any time of the year. He noticed that the shell of an egg usually has many small bumps and dimples, so that, by turning the egg in different directions, it can be made to touch a flat surface on three points at once, in many ways." That may help you with this method.
