What are your game day rituals?

[LeafsNation75]

On the day of a Leafs game does anyone have a ritual they always do?

Personally speaking before each game I like to wear Leafs related clothing like the Leafs logo hoodie from the Centennial Classic.

I tend to watch the games.

 

[Mr Hockey]

I wear my Leaf hat usually, not a big deal if i forget though

 

[Brown Dog]

Most of the time I like to get my jersey on!

 

[HolyCrap]

Drink beer.

 

[tmlms13]

turn on tv when game starts
turn off tv when game ends

The year before last when it was close for making the playoffs, I wore my Babsocks a decent amount. I had a 6-0-1 record in the regular season. 2-2 record against Washington with them.

 

[Phion Keneuf]

I always breathe when I watch Leafs games.

Argue with wife for tv remote, end up streaming game on laptop...

 

[Canada4Gold]

Usually in the mornings I like to wake up. Sometimes I'll eat before games. Tend to go to work a fair bit as I've heard that helps.

 

[Whaleafs]

Only started last year but I have an Under Armour Leafs shirt I always wear under my work shirt on game days

 

[ACC1224]

Set the PVR.

Pre-determine my scapegoat(s) for the game by examining the pregame lineup. Read social media and vanity blogs to understand the current trending complaints about Babcock and watch the game with those trendy too-cool-for-school thoughts swirling in my own node of the hive mind. Rush to the post game threads to post at least one "gud pro" reference to signal to the hive that the words that follow are not meant to disturb the collective narrative. Watch the likes pour in.

Mine's quite similar to this...... but turn on the tv well before the game starts...and sometime after the game ends.

 

[ShaneFalco]

Drink beers, tell dogs to lay down

 

[tom leafers]

I usually like to get one of those Molson Canadian cans with the leafs logo on it. I think its good luck.

 

[Ratboy]

I used to have some as a kid.

 

[Cleetus]

I put the game on grab a glass of chocolate milk, jump on the Hfboards to talk to you beautiful people lol.

Go to reddit.





Also I have a leafs logo puck from the early 80's. I think my Dad bought it for me. I wipe off the dust and display it in the window sill.

I had fun with superstitions/rituals when younger.

When I was younger I needed to have a particular light on in the family room, as well as a specific seat that I occupied which was only for me. I would also wear my Gilmour TML t-shirt every game which I'd only wash on off days like a Sunday. Pretty psychotic to say the least, but hey, being a fan is awesome.

Now, I tend to just read articles on the Athletic about the team, and read up on threads here at HFLeafs.

Shitty thing about being an adult with responsibilities lol is your life has to revolve around your job. I'm currently working a job where I won't be home until after 10pm Monday-Friday so I'm pretty much gonna miss every game except HNIC during the week which sucks HUGE. Gotta do what you gotta do though. Gonna have to turn off theScore updates on my smartphone and PVR every game to watch when I'm home.

I usually drink too much and get short with the wife. But I'm starting to get a handle on the diabetus.

 

[BodaciousBeefBazooka]

No rituals here. I dont believe in old wives tales. Just sit back and enjoy.

 

[Mr Hockey]

mute the tv if Romanuk was calling it

 

[Bluelines]

The only thing I do is I wear my jersey the first game every year.

Family knows the first game of the season they don't talk to me from puck drop to the finial whistle...cause I ain't listening.

At least you won't have to do that anymore.
