I have a t-shirt I always wear the day before games. I got the shirt in 2005 and wore it during 3 game days. We all know how that turned out.

During the 2003 "magical run" I sat in the same place every game, and the controller had to be perfectly aligned (could not be touched or moved by anyone else besides me)...

after 4th and 26 and the rest of the Eagles game is when I stopped...


This season is something new... I am 11-1 doing it, but I can't say until the season is over...

I am way to superstitious, it annoys me sometimes...

I beat my kids and wife before every game.

Just as sick as all of you thinking what you wear or do actually has an impact on the game, but hell I guess if it makes you happy, so bees it.

When I lie on the couch to watch the game, I always have to orient myself so that my head is pointing the direction I want the ball to go. I always try to lean the way that I want the ball to go, even when I'm not lying on the couch, honestly.

I cheer for the Packers. Oh wait, I do that every game.

Nope, no superstitions for me.

If the Packers fall behind, I start drinking heavily. I cannot clearly recall a time it hasn't worked.

I have a lot of them, here goes:

GENERAL RULES:

1. Can't wash the Favre jersey after a win. NEVER WASH THE WIN OFF.

2. I put the mini-helmet of the team we are playing next to a Packer mini-helmet in a special spot in my Packer basement.

3. I watch the games at home with a NFL football in hand, a Packer hand towel and a soft mini-packer football that says "go, pack, go" when you squeeze it. I use that to throw if need be.

4. NO PHONE CALLS ARE ACCEPTED DURING THE PACKER GAME.

5. The wife is required to wear Packer gear. She is a fan so she likes to but if the Packers lose, she may get blamed for not "gearing up" enough! :P

6. Home games - I leave at a certain time every game. My wife and I follow the same schedule every home sunday.

7. And the secret weapon. PACKER BOXERS are to be worn on every Packer Sunday. Don't worry, those get washed no matter what the score is! :shock:

Can't watch games at places where I've been if the Pack lost. Mom was unhappy at Thanksgiving, but it was for the greater good! :D

Games come on early here so I'm drinking java to start.....I used to have a favorite Packer coffee mug I HAD to use the morning of the game...I broke it two years ago and have not replaced it yet.

At this point, don't bother. And gbpackfan, so your wife can have a little peace of mind (and maybe a piece of something else after the game)

By the way no superstions for me, ar least not for packers games.

But I used to wear the same simmingsuit/kneeskin for a specific distance if the time for good until a had a bad race with it. Afterwards I swapped :roll:.

On gameday, I must take a shower between the hours of 11:00 and 12:00. No earlier, no later.

Thats an awfully long shower dude. Does your mom come knocking on the door asking what you're doing?

In my buddies basement back home you are never allowed to open the bathroom door while the pack is driving. This one might be true. Every time someone has opened that door something terrible happens. That's how The Packers lost to the Falcons at home in the playoffs. Its also how Javon Walker got hurt. Its also been blamed for a bout a million blown saves during Brewer games.

I have a friend who always wears a Favre jersey while we're on offense, a Woodson jersey on defense, and a Desmond Howard Michigan jersey when we're on special teams. Its exhausting.

I never shower on gameday, always the night before or not at all. No shaving either. I used to lock my doors and unplug my phone too, but being married that doesn't work anymore bitch is gonna bother me either way ( can't unplug her lol :D )

I've always had this superstition in all sports that if I watch the game, I can help the team telepathically and if someone tells me the score before I watch it, my team will be jinxed. It's stupid, but I believe it.

A lot of bad things have happened to me associated with the number 13.

I'm truly aware of the badness the number can mean for my life.

I'm too Irish !! We have many superstitions. One of them is never drink with a bloody Englishman unless he's doing all the buying. Then never get so loose as to make plans for a return engagement. Just dring up and OK drink some more and stagger out.:)

In the PickEm I'm always conscious of where I place that number 13 CP.

I never like to apply it to the Packers.

That thought even gives me the JeeBee's. :)

Jeeeee it doesn't have to be Friday the 13th to push me nearly off the rails. I just hate any day with 13 applied to it on the calander.

If I had to get to 14 Virgins through 13.

I'd stop at an even dozen. :)
