Not leaving this to chance. Here are few that come to mind for me:

- Can't walk away/stop watching during a crucial moment (bad luck)
- Watching from same spot as Tennesee games
- Drinking during the game (did not drink against WF)

I also made a promise to the baseball gods that I will get a tattoo to honor them in the event that LSU wins the CWS.

Anybody else?

You’re not supposed to tell us.



Whatever you think has been working and keep dong it.

The whole family is taking bunting practice. So far, even a toddler has looked more impressive than Jordan Thompson.

Was at my buddies house. He made the comment I have to come back over tonight and drink more Coors light (not a beer fan).

10 Hail Marys to the baseball gods should do it.

Definitely drinking for the game. They've lost every game I haven't drank. It's clearly my fault and I apologize.

I walk a circle around the back yard when the other team has two men on base. Good for my health, and when I come back we're out of it.

I walk in the other direction for offense.

I’ve had a lucky polo that I’ve worn for every football game or big baseball game since 2007. I’ve bought much nicer coaches polos since then and tried to go with them, but I always bring my lucky, ragged out piece of shite one with me and wind up changing at the slightest sign of us losing. But after we lost to Wake, I put on my championship gold polo last night. And we won. So I’ll be wearing that the rest of the way.

I also sleep in a 2003 championship t-shirt the night before every big game. It’s so faded you can’t even read it. Holes all in it. Can’t let it go.

Oh yeah, I bought some LSU socks before the ‘19 season. Wear them every game despite big arse holes in both heels. But you’d have to pry them off my cold dead feet to get these off of me now. Jesus Christ, I’m in my mid 40s and am still superstitious like a high school baseball player.

TravisBRTiger go ahead and remove this part of your routine because it clearly has not helped with RISP.

I’m wearing my 2000 cws shirt that I got from Omaha and breaking out my baseball bat that I picked up outside of the stadium. A bat maker was etching the final score into the cws bats.
