Calling any other freaks out there with a little touch of OCD!! At Tiger Stadium or watching at home, do y'all have a gameday shirt/jersey/hat that you feel MUST be worn or the Tigers are in trouble? If you go to an away game, do you also have a road version? Cold weather version? In the summer 2003, I found a LSU purple polo with and old school logo at Goodwill for $5, in Chattanooga of all places. I wore it that season and we all know how that ended up. It has been my gameday shirt since, but I am getting older and fatter, and the shirt is shrinking! Dreading making a switch, but this may be the year to do it. 5 yrs goes by quick! Any 10 yrs+ gameday shirts out there? Don't let me be the only freak!

Don't know why...but I feel I have to wear a jersey on game day. I also have to hold a football. It's like I'm waiting to be called up by Les to take the field if he needs me. I'm just waiting to get my shot, like Rudy.

Last year I shaved my beard twice, the week before the kentucky game and the week before the arkansas game.

Needless to say, I'm rocking the beard now.

I've worn the same army green boonie hat with LSU in Geaux Font since '03. Best present my wife has ever gotten me. Like this with LSU on it.

I only change my underwear if LSU loses a game. I have had the same pair on for almost two weeks.

I buy a new game day shirt at the beginning of the season and wear that shirt until we lose. The I go and buy another and repeat the process until the season is over.

Beginning about 3 years ago, I just have to dip my nuts in purple semi-gloss before the 1st College Gameday commercial break. Its seems to do the trick.

No other mandatory clothing although I do require my LSU beer insulator. All right, "Huggie."

I got a jersey when I was a kid that I never grew into until I was about 18. I wore it to every game for over a decade and finally retired it last season after the BCSNC. It is faded and worn and honestly I am surprised it held up this long. I got a good 15 years out of that thing. I keep it hanging in my closet now and have decided it will stay there until the next time we make it to a national championship game.

Bought a white hat for the "white hat game" against arkansas last year.

I wont be wearing that hat during football season.

I did the same thing last year and have since retired that thing to the black hole in my closet.

I have a continual drip of beer down my chin. Evaporation takes care of the saturation rate. An interesting thing, the longer the game, the larger the beer trickle. This of course is all absorbed by my LSU purple flannel shirt with pocket logo.

Tiger-striped shirt, gold tiger-eye hat, purple & gold shoes for home games. Undefeated so far (3+ years). Wore white for the white-out game one year...we lost. Other home games we lost I was out of town and missed them. I thought about giving the outfit to my brother to wear in my absence (I generally give him my tickets when I miss a home game), but I was concerned he would mess up the mojo.

I stack my 3 remotes upside down and in a pyramid shape. And if they are losing by halftime I have to take a shower and put on a different set of P&G's shirt and shorts.
