What game day superstitions do you folks embrace?

This year I have worn the same clothes "practically" throughout the season...adding layers as each game passed to compensate for the brutal winter cold we suffer here in southern California.

Since the Cowboys game I have worn the same outfit...nothing has been washed except the socks and underwear...I lost track of them at some point.

I wear blue jeans, New Balance trail running shoes, and a dark blue Super Bowl XXXVlll slouch hat. I wear a dark blue Patriots 3 Super Bowl Champs T-short. Over that I wear a #18 Randy Moss dark blue game shirt. I then wear a long-sleeved flannel shirt to keep the chill off. To top it all off, I wear a dark blue #12 Brady game shirt. They are ready and waiting for tomorrow night's State of the Union Address which starts out here at 5:15.

What superstitions do you embrace?

GO PATRIOTS!!!!!! 16-0...You CAN do it!!!

I have to be wearing my white #12 jersey and sitting in my leather recliner with my stuffed Pats ball. My wife will be on the couch to my left, wearing her Pats hoodie, and my sis-in-law on the couch to my right with her Pats t-shirt. And my newborn son gets pimped out in his Pats onesie and pants.

I used to be a little crazier (not peeing until halftime, for instance) but now I just go at commercial breaks.

None whatsoever

Pats cap, Bruschi Jersey and my daughter with her Brady jersey. Nothing out of the ordinary

LOL! I've been wearing my off. Bruschi jersey with the same Red Sox shirt underneath it and a Red Sox hat since preseason Game 1. Neither the shirt nor the jersey have been washed this fall/winter. The only times I didn't wear the Red Sox shirt was for the Eagles and Ravens game...so now I have to wear the same things until the season ends (with a SB win).

Oh and my buddies and I get a 5th (sometimes more ) of Doctor and pass it around after a Pats TD or FG (and sometimes after a sack if they haven't scored in a while).

I refuse to be one of those fans, and here's why:

There are millions of fans, all with their own superstitions. Unless I'm the only "real" person here, and everyone else is just a simulation or a dream (which I admit is a distinct philosophical possibility), why should my behavior affect the outcome any more or less than somebody else's?

haha, ibe been wearing my 39 and 12 jerseys....im pretty sure at random...

and thats the only one, and when the pats were doing pretty badly in the games, and i got frustrated, i would take which ever shirt i had on, off....

Me, I like the subroutine where I have the Patriots Dynasty going exponential. Stay tuned.

Actually, as a computer programmer with a strong interest in physics (I could have just said nerd), I've been very interested in the theory of digital physics (or perhaps it's a philosophy, since not being testable precludes it from being a theory). Especially the idea that the universe may behave as turing-complete computer based on the cellular automata model of computation. Actually, whether the universe is a computer isn't as interesting to me as whether it behaves like a computer, even if nobody built it for the express purpose of computation, since it would lead to all sorts of consequences, like the halting problem (another way of saying that there's no way to know how the universe will behave, except by actually running it and seeing the results).

Of course The Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy may be the real impetus for me being interested in all of this.

You just jinxed the Pats by writing that.
