Do you do any type of ritual before -during or after a Packer game each week?
My jersey is undefeated. It cannot be washed until we lose- don't want to wash away the magic! It goes on exactly 1 hr prior to kickoff, not a minute earlier or later. NEVER wear it outside of gameday, with exception of "Return to Titletown" back in Feb. Cheesehead only worn for NFC North games, only when Pack are on offense. I 100% believe that if I break any of these rituals, they will lose. My co-workers asked me to dress as a Pack fanatic for Halloween (we're in the South and they think I'm completely insane actually liking a pro team), and as tempting as it was, I just couldn't do it. Whenever we trail, I say a quick prayer. So far so good!
My son and I do the same when the Packers have the ball...except he does his old "nintendo" playing jumps while watching!!! (he's 27!)I have to stand up for every play. Only sit down for commercials and half time.
In my family, the game day ritual always centers around food. Something Italian and lots of it!!!
Before she married a different Italian out your way, my daughter was dating an Italian from the Jersey side of Philly. He was at our house for a meal and knew of my ties to Germany. He boasted; "The Italians gave the world the church." I replied; "And it took a German to fix it." He just looked at me stunned.
On top of it. Jersey is ready to go, I wanted to wear it so badly yesterday, especially after seeing a Bear fan at church.. boooo! And the cheesehead will come with tonight. I'll be away for Tgiving so I need to find a way to pack it for my flight! Hmmmm..
I have to wear the same jersey undershirt and pants (which I wash lol) and have to have the same hat and shoes on. Im going to the game tonight and I hope it dosnt get to cold cuz I cant wear anything else. Anything above 25 degrees will be good with me!
O I will I probably wont be able to speak after the game but it is well worth it!MAKE some noise
