    Anyone got any gameday superstitions?

    1 - Personally i watch the game alone.. If someone else is in the house during the game ill watch in my bedroom.. But i'll have the game on on all tvs in other rooms

    2- normally i wear 1 of 2 certain Steeler shirts, but a few weeks ago i got me a new Steelers shirt, and every time we have lost i was wearing it .. I got it on today see if its the shirt.. or Tomlin that is the root of the loses....lol

    I used to have a few, but like Tomlin’s coaching abilities they have faded drastically over the years.
    Did I do that right.

    The closest thing to a superstition. I bought a TT. The first game in my possession we got smoked. Haven’t touched that terrible towel since. It just sits on top of a bookcase collecting dust.:lolol:

    Mine change from the beginning of the year from how many losses. I keep adding more stuff on myself every time We lose. Like I start out with a pinky ring that an ex bought that I had worn the last time We won a SB.
    As soon as We lose a game I add something else 2 wear. LoL.
    I remember in baseball wearing a batting glove I had 2 cut because it didn't fit right anymore.
    In football a t- shirt that could barely be called that in the end. In boxing I had socks, and Kickboxing a certain cup. LoL .
    So yes I'm very superstitious.

    I'm not a naturally superstitious person. However, I have several wristwatches and it seems to me that my nearly 40 year-old Seiko that my sweetie bought me after I graduated high school is a good luck charm for more than just football. Anything I have to get done on game day I like to get finished well before game time. I'm aware that's not a superstition, I just don't want to be bothered while I'm watching the game.

    When my family use to get together for every game we were flat out ridiculous. I remember one game we made my poor sister stay outside because we were convinced the Steelers would lose if she came in. I've sat in same position for 3 hours. Other times we would switch seats, etc. etc.

    Those days are all over for most of us but I have an 80 year old brother-in-law who still blames loses on people talking or moving. Stopped watching with him years ago.

    If I wear a jersey to work on Friday and they win I'll keep doing it.

    I will rock the playoff beard but if they are losing or the beard gets to itchy I'm not that attached to it and will trim up the normal goatee.
