Well, maybe just start one of those crowd fund thingies for me so I can get off this dial-up connection. That would be a big help. Bout hunnert thousand would be good.....

If I don't watch porn on gameday, the Vols lose.

I'll post a pornhub link to some Tessa Fowler tomorrow morning for ya!...

As for myself, if we are winning at halftime (and provided I'm at home) I will drink 2 Miller Lite bottles. If we are behind or tied, I drink a shot of Jagermeister with a splash of Red Bull. This strategy dates back to 1998 with decidedly mixed results both for the Vols and my liver.

I bought my then 4 yr old little girl a miniature stuffed Smokey a couple of years back. Now, every game day, she comes and places it on my shoulder and says "good luck daddy".
I know that's sounds more of a tradition than superstition but now I feel it would be bad luck if she didn't.

The list is long my friends. During games I change seats or stand and move spots until we start playing well. The Last two games took me while to find that winning location. GoVols!

First have to have the right shirt on (have changed shirts during a game more than once) then my beer has to have its label perfectly aligned with the power T logo on my koozie, which I bought a new one last year before our 8 game win streak because I thought my old was bringing us bad luck and your welcome. Then it's how I'm sitting on the couch, have to change positions per series depending on how we are doing. I know I'm very stupidstisive

Strange. I do the opposite sometimes. If we're getting beat down, I turn away for a few mins and turn it back to see if it was just me watching that caused them to play so terribly. Lmao

I sit a certain way till I find the sweet spot and the Vols start playing well. I let my wife buy me a new coozie and I threw that unlucky thing away after Florida last year.
On a side note I found a toy gator that a guy I work with gave my son when he was one, he's now 12! I took that unlucky voodo cursed reptile into the garage and cut its head and tail off with my high speed cutter. Curse broken, your welcome. Come Monday I'm slashing his tires for all the pain he caused.😎

We never can switch seats or leave for concessions at home games if UT is up unless it's halftime, if we are down then by all means do something else.

I turned my phone off in 2nd quarter of app at game because so many people were texting crap about app st, then we came back and won so I turned it back on after game. I turned it off again in 2nd quarter last week at Bristol... Hmm. It will be off at noon tomorrow so we should start better!! You're all welcome!

Hahaha, I do the exact same thing. I wondered if anyone else does.

My wife and I went mining for gems in 2014. Per the gem expert at the mining place, we both found a rock nicknamed the "Vegas rock" because it's supposed to bring good luck. We kept them in our back pockets during the 2015 Florida game.

Those rocks are in rock heaven now.....

It seems like when I go out my way to show pride, we lose. So I no longer display my degree in my office. I no longer wear my block T tie. I do still wear my two Invicta watches (one with a rose/Orange dial and one with an Orange leather band. Oh, and I still display my UT shower curtain which ended being a talking point to a potential buyer when I sold my house. :lolabove:

One more thing. My birthday is Sep 18th. We used to always play UF on or near my birthday so naturally I thought I was bringing the team bad luck on my b-day. Now I believe we lose to UF no matter what the circumstance is.

When I was younger watching with my dad he got me a Coaches type Polo shirt to wear and
now if I try and watch a game without one on I get huge jitters and have to put it on. Been doing it for years,
Its a odd habit I guess but I know if I don't wear it and we lose I'll never let myself live it down. :eek:lol:

Actually, our last victory was on your birthday - Sept. 18th, 2004.

Clipping fingernails before.

Bad stuff literally just happened as soon as I did it this week.
