Superstitious

[dgan]

I am probably the least superstitious person I know. Yet, I cannot help but notice that I have never attended a Brewer game AND THEY'VE WON! I went yesterday, and we got our butts handed to us, 11-0.

Now granted, I've probably only been to a dozen Brewer games in my life, but still...they've never won when I am there. It's to the point I feel like I'm dooming them just buying the tickets.

Anyone else have goofy superstitions?

Hey, that happens. I think. We never go to Braves games (once we did last year, Braves won!) and I really don't care if the Cards lose, so I'll take your bad luck when we go out there.

Y'know, though, The Brew-Crew don't win when you go, but they don't win a whole lot when you're NOT there either. jk man.

As far as superstitions go, I've got 'em all. I play tons of softball, so I pay close attention to all the lucky stuff. Now, I'm not superstitious either, but it's always fun when you pass a truck carrying barrels on the way to your game. Or when you're the first one at the ballpark. Whatever.

Little things make the game more fun, I think.

This isn't my superstition, but all my friends seem to have it: We all play a miniatures game and they all seem to think that what color dice you roll affects what you will get when you roll.

I don't eat a table with where I would be the 13th person. There's an old superstition that when 13 people eat together, the first one to get up will die first--it goes back to the Last Supper and Judas.

Well this is a tad different from the above but what the hay. When I wake up from some freaky nightmare (they rarely happen to me) and its the middle of the night, I don't turn on the lights and try to forget what was just running through my mind. Instead I grab one of the daggers hanging on my wall and place it on the shelf by my head and then lay back down and sleep. Just in case.

Did you say daggers on your wall?? daggers are cool just like swords and machetes

I have a superstition, or whatever, about the Triple Crown that's kind of like dgan's; I don't watch the Derby or the Preakness, and the same horse wins both (I usually record these). Then, I watch the Belmont live, and the horse looses. I'm not superstitious, but this has happened for the past four or five years without fail. Since the Derby will be on when I'm a work tomorrow, I don't think I'm going to be watching any Triple Crown races live this year. You know, just in case.

I have a variety of all the above mentioned plus a shield.

I always wear green to job interviews - and on the day of the interview, I don't shampoo my hair. Every time I've gone to a job interview with green on and unshampooed hair I get the job.

OK here is one
It is unlucky for a black cat to run across the road in front of you on any night.
