GenerationA47 736 Posted March 24, 2021 If the actions don’t actually bring perceived good fortune - because they’re done for every game attended, regardless of the end result which is more a function of the team’s performance that season - but are rather habits, rigidities, or traditions... are they then technically superstitions?

Paint Me Yellow 198 Posted March 24, 2021 (edited) I have to have at least 3 pints of fosters and then a huge pi$$ in the carra bogs before heading for my seat. Nothing to do with superstition, I just enjoy doing it and thought I'd tell you anyway. Edited March 24, 2021 by Paint Me Yellow 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

During USA 94, I seem to recall there were up to four matches a day during the group stages. Aaaaaanyway Fostersxwas on offer so me and a couple of friends bought a slab of 24 x 500ml can each.... big mistake!! Woke up in the early hours as the fourth match was ending...dont remember it starting , knee deep in empty cans and the mother of all thumping headaches going on. I have kept my vow never to drink that foul brew again. 27 years and counting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My only complaint was that Carlsberg couldn't arrange a decent scoreline. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
