I admit at times like this I border on OCD.
For starters, the Red Hoodie stays in the closet this time.
If the game is going well I stick with whatever I'm doing. But if things are going badly, I watch a different TV, or mute the audio, or switch seats.
I am big on in-game adjustments.
Go Pats!!!

I wore a long sleeve Pats tee when they lost to the Giants this past season. Since that game I have worn a short sleeve Pats tee, which has yet to be washed. 10 wins later, it is back on! Win #11 is at hand!! GO PATS! -

Yes, wore the same things for the Ravens game that I wore for the Broncos game (I did wash them and they still worked) will be wearing the same things for the SB that I wore for both games (I washed them again). Bought and serving the same refreshments I served for both games too. Will be watching at a different location tho
but taking the refreshments with me. Was like that as a kid too for the games. -

I've been wearing the same Welker jersey for this entire winning streak. I also have to have a shot of Jack Daniels at kickoff with friends (and at key moments of the game) for luck. -

I've been a PATs fan since the 70's. I use to wear Pat Patriot gear all the time until they lost in the 85/86 SB. I thought it was the gear but after they starting winning SBs again I started wearing the gear again and found it wasn't the gear, it was the ownership, coaches, and players who didn't perform. So I was happy I kept it all and still have it. I like the fact that they've brought back a lot of the old looking gear.
Which TV do I watch? Now that's another story similar to the in game adjustments mentioned by NYJoseph. :-) I bought a HD plasma over 5 years ago thinking I want to enjoy watching them win a championship on it and it's never happened. The only time I watch them on it is when it's a blowout and they have the game well in hand. I'll be watching this game on another TV.
Enjoy the game everyone! -

Wear the blue Brady jersey. They won much bigger in that game. -

If I am sitting and they're playing well, I stay seated.
If I am standing and they're playing well, I keep standing. -

Yes. I'll be wearing my SBXXXVI tee shirt under my old Boston Patriots jersey, and wearing my red Pat Patriot hat on offense and taking it off on defense. If things start going wrong my wife wears the hat. -

My biggest issue is that in the past, when the Pats were going to tank you could tell right away. This years team had for many games first quarters where they had that tanking feel. BUT they rose up, time after time. I'm going to be living on the edge of death for the entire game unless it's a runaway. I know they are better than the Giants. I know they can win. I know they adjust well, and that the first quarter isn't that relevant to this team. RISE UP, PATRIOTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -

I'm alone watching. My wife goes to the BR to watch whatever.
I don't like to have others around making comments especially dumb ones. I also like to keep my gumb thoughts to my self.
I have a certain way I half way lay down on the couch with my left arm over my head it always seems to work. It's wierd -

Yep. Very. I will wear the same thing I wore the last 2 games. Sit in the same spot at by friends house and everything. That's just the way it is. Most of them do the same thing too. Pretty much all my sports friends are superstitious. -

You guys make LOL. I do a lot of the same things. Although the eating the same meal for each SB hasn't been one of them at least for me.
