Any superstitions? Dress code? Must-have food? Flying the flag or other CU decor on your home or car?

Anything you've got planned for tomorrow?

My standby is wearing the same shirt from the last CU victory and ordering a 4 egg Kong from Deli Zone for breakfast. My CU flag is always out in my yard.

same shirt and same underwear. Washed, of course.
 
I have tried so many the last 17 years or so I still do not have it figured out. When we won on a regular basis I was so young and buzzed all the time, I didn't appreciate it more. wait, what?

I don't have one. and I haven't for years. I used to have a hat I had to wear and flew the flag. I burned those mid hawk era
 
I wake up early, check allbuffs and try to post in the "IT'S GAAAME DAAAAY" thread
 
Kind of a funny story but two years ago when we lost to CSU I joined rivals a couple months before that and got the $100 bucks gift card to their online shop. Me being the procrastinator I am waited until a week before the game to order a shirt but I left my house at noon on Friday and it had not come yet. So we lose I'm all pissed off and I come home and it was waiting for me on my doorstep. I have worn that two straight RMS's and we haven't lost so I wear that almost every game now.
 
I'm well stocked up with vodka for tomorrow, as well as a sufficient amount of Colorado's favorite herbal medicine. I'm good to go! (y)
 
Well my superstitions are ever changing. Currently I am withholding a haircut and shave, can't risk it. That doesn't even touch the tip of the weird iceberg.
 
I generally get up about 7 or 8, hit the store for some donuts. Come home eat the donuts with a couple bloody Mary's. Then I smoke about ten cigarettes which facilitates a giant two flusher **** that requires a shower in order to feel fresh and clean again. By now it is about 10- 10:30 so I turn on TV to check early games while surfing the net for the latest porn and of course reading allbuffs on the other tab.

About noon, I get out the materials for chili cheese dogs and transition from Bloody Mary to greyhounds. I have a tennis ball can that i drink this out of with pebble ice.

By this time my wife is back from errands and I am feeling no pain and think that I am the best looking guy with the biggest dick in the world. by this time the game has started and I have missed most of the 1st quarter because i am trying to bone the wife.

Usually I have to re watch the second half the next day because I don't remember it.

AA anyone?
 
If the Buffs begin to implode, I turn off the TV/radio and do something else. If, when I turn it back on, things have changed, that's what I do when things turn bad again. If I can't figure out the right fix, I have only myself to blame for a CU loss.

Sometimes, I deprive or even punish myself to get what what I want - tomorrow, I'm leaving Colorado early (was here to assist my dad with his valve replacement), and only listening on he radio. While enjoying a lead, exuberant enthusiasm seems to work best. Unless is goes to crap, then I'll probably find a shack in nub land to watch the game to change our fortunes. Maybe shirts if I must.

But please, I don't really believe in silly superstitions.
 
Rituals don't survive the past decade. Things like shirts, etc. that date from the Hawk era simply are not worn. One thing that sucks is we do much, much better when I'm not able to watch on tv. My radio win percentage driving around is off the charts.
 
Intricately mow my lawn to create optimum gameday conditions and hang my CU flag first thing on a gameday morning. Then I bang my war drum while chanting the fight song in my driveway.

I'm with you. I got my hair cut and shaved the morning of the RMS. You bet your sweet ass I won't be doing either again until the Buffs lose.
