Since I watch all of our games from the comfort of my recliner, please don't tell me how "silly and white trash"I am because I wear a Clemson Jersey. I received a #10 Ben Boulware/Tucker Isreal jersey for Christmas last year. We haven't lost since I've been wearing my good luck charm....14-0 so far!

I begin each game day playing several Clemson songs on my computer. I watch the game on the same TV and wear the same scarf. My husband wears the same shirt and watches on a different TV! This seems to work for us!!

as I am convinced that the things that I do have little to no bearing on the outcome of the game.
Having said that though, when I play golf, I have a truckload of them.

with Clemson on the cover. I try not to say "when we win" always "if we win". I've had certain shirts or beer glass/mugs that I've used during the game. I only pick up pennies on heads, but dimes on tails are fair game.

I received a new orange shirt before season started.
Dec 27, 2015, 7:15 PM
|

I wore it for each game. Before one game, I was looking for it and found it in the dirty clothes. I thought "on crap........ ah screw it, I'll wear it dirty. I HAVE to wear it." We won that game 58-0. I looked at my wife after the game and said "well, it looks like I am not washing this shirt for the rest of the year." She laughed at me and then washed it...lol

Have to have my Clemson flag out by 7:00 am and bed made by that time with the pillows a certain way. Wear the same clothes each game day and sit a certain way in my recliner, not reclined, and have 2 Pepsis', one can and one bottle. The bottle is for the offense as I will open it when the offense first steps on the field and the can is for defense as I open it for a can of whip a$$. Seems to work, so I want change a thing.

Also, after I moved into my new house this summer, my brother attempted to hang a flag holder for my brand new beautiful Clemson flag; his drill died before he got all 4 screws in. So, it only had 2 holding it up, which was enough to hold the flag up for my housewarming party at the end of August. It fell down about 4 days later - which was RIGHT before the 1st game. That flag has lived in the closet all season and will stay there until I return home from Phoenix on January 12th.

I've been wearing the same hat since my first semester in 99. I only wear this hat on game days now.
About. 7-8 years ago, I decided I would not retire this hat until we won a national championship.
It's nickname is Old Trusty. It's never been washed. And it seem some wild game days.

I have several Clemson t-shirts, but I never wear them on game day. A friend gave me an orange crown royal football t-shirt that he picked up from the salvation army and was too big for him. This was when I was in the midst of losing some serious weight, and it was the first time I had been able to fit into an XL shirt since high school.
It kinda just grew on my as my game-day shirt, and I would wear it under my nicer orange button ups, or by itself, depending on the situation. This tradition started with the Georgia game 2 years ago, and I only did not wear that shirt a few times.
The first was when I had to go to a wedding on October 19th 2013.
The next was at the South Carolina game. I elected to wear one of those street talk t's that I had gotten from the Georgia game.
The next year, I again decided to wear this street talk tee because I had bought it at the Georgia game the previous year.
I honestly don't remember whether I wore it or not for the GA TECH game, but I won't ever make that mistake again.
I only break out the classless t-shirt after a victory now, but not in public...it's pretty trashy.

Yup, if Im not at the game, and at home watching it, I will generally throw my hat at the TV at their first SNAFU, then leave it where it lays for the entire game. Simple, yet, effect. LOL

Wear the same hat and polo for every game, regardless off if I'm there or watching on tv. I'll pair them with different pants, shorts, jackets, vests, etc depending on weather. Also have my mimosas in the morning. Only game I didn't do that was Louisville and we survived a close game, so I made sure to do it for every game, home or away. Those are really my main things.
