Do you have gametime superstitions

[KCKUKFan]

Yes, kick everyone out turn up the TV and not say a word..


Oh that's right, the internet and smart phones came along and now (including myself sometimes) spend half the time on social media crying blanking and complaining because every play every move that wasn't executed to perfection lol.....


In all reality, just like to watch the game alone by myself...

And bicker with me in the game threads.

That's what I am saying, it's that social media smart phone bs lol lol lol....

Back when I was younger I would stay glued to a UK game plus shamefully so, I would be higher than a kite (many many years ago) locked in.


Now if we get up big, I will get distracted and kind of zoom in zoom out on autopilot.

If we are playing like crap, I am quick to so go somewhere and yap about it.

My goal for the upcoming season is to lock in watch every moment of every game, enjoy the ride, enjoy the moment.

Something to be said for this, just getting back to enjoying the game being played. I think it’s part and parcel of this Pope Era so far.

I have a UK bear that I will set up in front of the tv and take a picture of it with my bourbon; in a UK glass. Send that to the family before the game, and won’t take a sip of bourbon until the ball has been tipped.

I actually don't have any superstitions regarding game days. Just kick back in my recliner and escape real life for a couple hours. I've mellowed some as I've aged. I used to let it affect my moods and whatnot. I don't let it do that anymore. I don't care any less, if that makes sense.

For me its just making sure I synch a live game video stream with Tom & Goose minutes before gametime. It's the only way to watch Kentucky basketball.

Honestly, I miss the old pre social media you tune in watch every game then let it go to the next. I can't even remember the name of the book I used to buy every year but I believe it was CATS PAUSE, had all the high schoolers UK preview and all that, may be wrong about the name.

Still it's all good, technology has it's advantages, much more aware these days but also much more consumed with it lol...

Anyways, I just want to enjoy the game and take it all in for the moments..

Yes, very good point. I do try to turn on the radio and watch, love listening to Goose and Tom call the game...

Cats Pause was the annual preview / yearbook for UK sports, started by Oscar Combs.

It was the definitive source for info prior to the internet.

When I watch games at home, I must watch them alone. And I don’t text anyone or call anyone.

[darkshadesofblue]

If we’re playing at home, drive on the right side of the road

If playing away, drive on the left side of the road

Seriously though, if it’s a significant game that’s down to the wire I feel it’s better luck if I tune out the game and just gauge what’s going on in the comments

Never wear the same UK gear after a loss. Conversely, where the same UK gear on game day as long as we keep winning. Hey, that includes underwear, if you must know.
