    Default Athletes are superstitious and have rituals,do you as a bettor have them too?

    You always hear how athletes do the weirdest things like taping their hockey stick a certain way in hockey,marking a golf ball the same way in golf,hitting helmets in football,eating the same food before a game.etc.etc.There are actually many former athletes that went nuts with rituals where they acquired compulsive disorders like keeping their surroundings at home a certain neat &tidy way,parking cars certain ways.etc.Former jorneyman NHL player Lou Nanney went on Oprah saying he needed professional help over it.

    So with players thinking they perform better and have luck doing certain stupid things a certain way,does anyone here as a bettor have rituals,good luck charms.etc.where they turn to for making bets?

    I remember a few episodes of the Twilight Zome that dealt with this stuff.

    During NHL and MLB playoffs, if my team makes them, I grow a sick beard.

    I usually wait a hour after I have made my wagering decision and then place the wager.
