I’m not superstitious but..........

Stylesy : 1/21/2023 3:19 pm
For tonight’s game i’m going to do exactly as I did prior to Sunday’s win over the Vikings.

This includes drink of choice, same new Giants top that my family got me for Xmas and watching with the same people as well (got my little brother in trouble as he was meant to be it for dinner with his Mrs). Same cologne applied also...... ;)

Do any of you guys have any slightly irrational “habits” prior to a big Giants game?
somewhat stitious.......

I have many ‘stitious quirks,

Because I can’t remember what I was wearing during the last game.

and I won’t let it stop me now
I was really into bbq'ing around 2007

After accidentally burning a couple wings before the Tampa Bay wild card game I kept it going with increasing "sacrifices". This culminated in the ceremonial torching of a rack of ribs before the Super Bowl.

No one will ever convince me I didn't do my part.

Was asked politely by me to make the same exact meal we ate last Sunday
Definitely a little stitious  
PepperJ52 : 1/21/2023 3:34 pm : link
Wearing the same gear as last week: Strahan jersey the Mrs. gave me on Christmas Eve, Giants gym shorts and Giants slippers over Giants socks.
There’s a little more as far as ritual but it might be TMI, lol

my Shockey jersey last Sunday and wore it today.
I will make sure my cat is in his same spot on the couch...

His reward will be my sweatshirt to rest on after the game.
I’ll be putting on my Barkley jersey later  
GiAnT4LYFE : 1/21/2023 3:52 pm : link
Only because I’m about to cook some wings on the grill during the first game.

I got drunk AF for the Vikes game. I guess I'll have to do the same today...a heavy cross to bear.
I've been more so in past seasons  
GmeninPSL : 1/21/2023 4:07 pm : link
not so much these last few. But I had a very strange dream last night that #19 scored 2 TD's, including the winner. He looked nothing like Golladay, but he did wear #19.
tuck jersey

that was deployed for 07 and 11 will be on again tonight... kind of didn't change the wardrobe from last friday and saturday either... I for one am very superstitious!
I’ve had my 82 manningham jersey on  
OBJ_AllDay : 1/21/2023 4:09 pm : link
With my 2 year old daughter in her saquon jersey the last few weeks. Nothing is changing. Thought about the ole miss eli jersey but not risking it. Let’s go!!!
If only the team knew

How much of an effect my wardrobe and consumption selections are responsible for their success. They would give me tickets for life!

He tweeted:

My kids have learned to use my own Giants superstitions against me. “Dad, can I have $40 to go to the mall? You gave it to me last week and they won in Minnesota”. Dammit. (I gave him the $40)

I was at a wedding last Sunday. Not wearing the tuxedo today.
Imagine if any of that crap mattered???  
DefenseWins : 1/21/2023 5:00 pm : link
the giants would be sending people over to your house to make sure you were wearing the same shit as last week
As much as I want the Giants to win  
sb2003 : 1/21/2023 5:01 pm : link
I'll pass on the same things pre-game from last week when a shower valve failed and it was raining in my house.
Since the Bills/Giants Superbowl, I've been using a Miniature Plastic

Giants helmet to help my team win games. I place it in front of the TV placing the face mask in the direction the Giants were on offense,and turning the face mask each quarter. Silly? Sure, but we've won at least 3 Lombardis over that period, so you can rest assured that my little Giants helmet will be part of tonight's game.

And give66, like you, this thread brought to mind.

Wore the hat around town(Bay Area) and will drink an IPA per half and wear number 10 sweatshirt and blue Giants shirt. Go NY!
I remember when I first started watching the Rangers  
BestFeature : 1/21/2023 6:04 pm : link
I would wear a Rangers jersey while watching them at home. The Rangers sucked at the time. The jersey did not work.
