What Are Your Game Day Superstitions?

And I got a Giants shirt from Christmas and, like you Ed, wore it before the Dallas and Atlanta games. So now I have the routine of wearing my shirt for 2 days before a game, then jersey on gameday

Not really a superstition, I just feel the need to look like a dude from the blue man group with Giants attire.

Fiancè gave it to me Christmas eve before the Jets game.

Well, it’s not so much set things, but more so of just going with feelings during the game.

Like if we are doing well, no one is allowed to change seats, or change the volume, or move anything, etc.

It’s really just a terrible mixture of OCD, nervousness, and superstition, but I couldn’t imagine gameday without it :)

If I am doing something during game day and they win, I tend to repeat. If they lose, I eliminate. I went through the whole 2000 season without the ability to eat chicken wings as I determined it impacted the play on the field.

I only wear my Eli Jersey for a playoff game. I am 5-0 looking to go 6-0.

Put on the Simms hoodie before the game. Add the ballcap if the Giants are trailing in the 4th Quarter. Reverse the ballcap rally-cap style if the Giants are trailing in the last 5 minutes of the game.

jack and coke in my NYG tervis tumbler and always stand up in a linebacker stance when defense is against 3rd down or if they go for on 4th (see ATL)

Last week I forgot to shower in the morning, so this week will be the same. I will sit in the same chair I sat in last week with my “All In” towel I got from the Giants-Cowboys game (Its become a lucky towel now).

Only one shoe when the Giants play and it has to be the left shoe that I wear.

I’ve tried with attire all year but the team has been so up and down I have’nt been able to commit to anything.

Seems like everyone has it covered here lol…
No, really. Don’t have any superstitious activities or routines. The Giants aren’t gonna win or lose because of something I do. It’s not like ‘electricity’ in tag or something.
However, I’m sure that in some eyes, now it’s my fault for all of the Giants’ losses this season and beyond.

Then I can’t sit beyond the 1st qtr, lately I’ve been leaning on my bar behind my couch while doing jager bombs, if they look like crap I have to go on my patio for a cigar, if joe buck is talking I shut off the outside speaker… It seems every time I take a shot of jose victor gets a big catch… If we need a big catch best believe I’m going to be hanging with jose… Only Giants fans allowed, I’d hate to have to choke out my guest but I will(jagers fault), only watch the games at home if in public it could get ugly or you may mistake me for a philly fan. When we look like we can’t win I say its over and have my 60pd black lab be my lap dog and drink my beer… That’s my game day, also I have to cook something pre game, grill, make meatballs and gravy, chicken parm, baby back ribs, something… Today is steaks.

my superstitious idiosyncrasies shouldn’t matter (or so they tell me).

having said that, the Nicks Jersey stays losing…it’s been two years of this nonsense.

I also like avoiding this place before the game, especially game threads, and for some reason sitting on my ottoman > sitting on the couch.

Last time I wore my Eli jersey, we lost (vs Washington). Last time I wore my Nicks jersey, we won (vs Falcons).

Looks like Im wearing the Nicks jersey again!

Gotta watch my diet so Grilled Chicken for me :(

We are 7-1 watching games together. Only loss? The Packers. Today only two of the three will be watching with me and that will break the curse of the one loss,

and I just have to chime in.

I wear my Eli jersey, and lately I’ve worn a faded gray t-shirt underneath that has been lucky. No need to change. I watch from my Big Blue Recliner, no joke.

And you guys will love this—I don’t necessarily have to wear blue underwear, but I can’t wear any underwear that has any of the opposing team colors on it.

and yeah, the whammy. Last week when there were like 7 minutes left in the game, Joe Buck started in with the, “well, now we know the Giants will probably go to Green Bay next week” and I remembered the game against Tenn where we gave up 24 points in the last 7 minutes. Man, that irritates me to no end. But they do it all the time.

Lately too, I have barely been able to eat during Giants games because of nerves. And whatever, we all just want our team to win that badly. I know I do. Let’s do this thing guys!

I’ll wear what I want, say what I want, do what I want!

I’ve been in Texas since we’ve been playing our best ball since. I cancelled my flight till 28th.

When I watch the game at home I always wear my Giants Snuggie. I sit on the edge of the couch/chair the entire game. My roommate is not allowed to talk to me (she is a Cowboys fan) unless we are playing each other. Then it’s usually trash talk. I cannot turn the channel during commercials. And friends/roommates are not allowed to walk in front of the TV. I curse and throw crap at the TV or nearest person often. So it’s best if no one sits with me.

If I am out in public I always wear my Manning jersey with my gold Giants helmet pendant.

Today, I am wearing a blue dress to church. And I painted my nails red and blue to be festive for the win our G-Men WILL get today! :-)

Yea, I know, very girly…

keep the sh!t talking to a minimum, wear the nicks jersey

I haven’t washed my game day Eli Jersey Since beating the J-E-T-S I wear the same NY Giants Tee Shirt the day after we win and same deal no wash. My Wife said shes filing for divorce if I don’t let her wash them. LOL
It’s gonna be close can she file the papers before we win on Feb 5th 2012 :)

And if this ain’t working ,standing by the front door with a pack of Marlboro lights

Im in florida right now visiting my girls parents… Completely more out of my element for a giants game than ive ever been… Still found my new york post and daily news and still got giants clothes on everyday.. Go giants

I am responsible for the loss to the ravens in the superbowl, i was suppossed to watch it at home but went to a freaking bar. I always watch games at home, i never wear any giant outfit except my blue cap

I normally keep my beard pretty short, but I haven’t trimmed it since the Jets game. Hopefully I look like Billy Gibbons from ZZ Top the next time the Giants lose.

Bacon and Egg on a roll, anything else the Giants lose
My Kiwi Jersey (97 before he changed to 94) they never win if i don’t wear it
I have been going to the same few bars for 12 years. Track record terrible when i don’t go
Shots of Jameo when they score TD’s or the other team will come back and score
Shots of Jameo when the game is not looking hot and need turn around momentum
I bring a Jet fan friend who is also a Met fan because his misery makes the Giants win
If they lose when people outside my group show up to watch, i don’t allow them back
If they win when people outside my group watch, i make them come back

I found myself changing jerseys at half time if the player who’s jersey I was wearing was having a bad game. It was getting a little ridiculous, so I said the hell with it and now I just wear a throw back blue giants t-shirt I found. It’s very non-player bias, so if a player sucks it’s not case I was wearing the jersey!

it stays on. It was on a 1 year ban because of what happened the last time I wore it (2nd Eagle game) but now its back and here to stay.
During the game, after the Giants get first downs I scream “MOVE THOSE CHAINS”.
I do alot of other strange things but thats more because I’m a crazy person.

i never where my teams jersey the week of a game in football or the day of a game in baseball/basketball

whoa fuck the refs

But, each time I’ve walked past the Empire State Building when it represents Giants Blue, I post the picture to facebook and they win.

So, I’ll keep doing it.
