Jesus had a last supper because the next day he is going to die on the cross
This was categorized under 'The Last Supper', so I'm going to conclude that you were referring to that. The Last Supper was not bad, however what proceeded the day after and what the Last Supper stood for is rather grotesque.The Last Supper was, in the New Testament, the Last Supper that Jesus ate with his disciples, and the one in which he gave his last words of wisdom. The proceeding day, Jesus was set to be crucified, and hence the celebration of Easter.
The Last Supper refers to the last meal that Jesus Christ shared with his disciples before his betrayal by Judas later that night and his crucifixion the next day. It is also famous because it was at the Last Supper that Jesus instituted the tradition of the Eucharist.
The "Last Supper" or "Lord's Evening Meal" was instituted in the Spring, on Nisan 14, the same day Jesus was killed. Matthew 26:26-30
Jesus was arrested on Thursday after the Last Supper Pasover meal. This day is entitled Maundy Thursday. The Thursday before the Sunday which is Resurrection Day, the day He arose.

Jesus fulfilled the Passover as was given to Moses as an example of His coming. For some Christians, Passover is a memorial of the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, "our Passover" which made possible the forgiveness of our sins.

In Christianity, bread and wine are used in the sacrament of Holy Communion to symbolize the body and blood of Jesus Christ. This ritual is known as the Eucharist, where believers partake in remembrance of Jesus' sacrifice on the cross. Through the transubstantiation doctrine, some Christian denominations believe that the bread and wine actually become the body and blood of Christ.
We celebrate Holy Thursday because it was The Last Supper, and when Jesus washed the feet of the disciples. This was a special day, the day before Jesus was Commended to death. Before all the 15 Stations of the Cross began. Similar to the Last Supper instead of using a long table for Christians, we eat the body of Jesus (the Eucharist) and drink the blood of Jesus (the wine) every Sunday at mass. Every year we repeat these Holy days to show our faith as Christians.
The Last Supper was held on the occasion of the Jewish Passover feast, which in the synoptic gospels (Matthew, Mark and Luke) was the evening before the crucifixion of Jesus. The synoptic gospels all contain the story of the Last Supper. John's Gospel prefers the crucifixion to be on the day of preparation for the Passover feast, so John omits the Last Supper account, replacing it by Jesus washing the feet of the disciples.
It's supposedly unlucky. It stems from the story in the Christian bible - of the 'last supper' - when there were 13 people present. The last supper occurred the day before Jesus was betrayed.
