Sounds like either loose connection or a bulb with a broken filament that just happened to connect when you hit it. I would replace it if the connection looks tight. Usually you can hit the light again and it will go out for good.

And I know you said "oh darn" didn't you. Keep you fingers off them also as body oils will cause hot spots and they will blow sooner.

Not sure on the fog lights as I have not looked at them since I went to 55 watt bulbs and wired them on all the time about 1.5 years ago. Any auto store should be able to tell you.
