Well for soccer I always eat the same thing and then just listen to flames music and then put my shin pads on a specific way.

For hockey I go onto the ice right foot first every time.

I have some weird Pregame Rituals

get to the rink early (when possible) watch the warmup

sing the national anthem to myself under my breath in French when it's being sung before hand

during the playoffs last year I had a system, would get p*ssy with my parents if they messed it up.

Go to shoppers buy: 1 pkg Golden Buds, 1 pkg Super Nibs, 2L Coca-Cola.

Leave it on the kitchen counter until game time

during the US National anthem go upstairs and get it, put it on the computer table

Remain standing for the Canadian national anthem (if in Canada stand for the Cdn then go upstairs for US) sing French version under my breath

I'm trying to remember if there was any more?

Every time my mother "threatened" to wear one of my Calgary jerseys to work (she works at the university I went to) we'd lose that night. Mind you when they made the finals she did wear my 90's Flames jersey :tup:

hmmmmm

trying to think of anything else

when at home, go to Iriving in the 1st intermission :P (we're allowed to leave the rink and come back with our ticket and hand stamped)

A pre-game dump never hurts.

I don't have many pre-game rituals come to think of it.
#1 Some people have a lucky rock, or a lucky shirt. I have a lucky ring that I normally always wear. But I always check to make sure it's on for game time.

#2 is sing the national anthem in French, whispering or just in my head. (So I'm not the only one?!) Though it happens that I may switch back and forth b/t English & French by the time it's over.

that's all i can think of... This isn't necessarily pre-hockey game rituals. For most sporting events this'll happen.

For running, I want to be as fully "vacated" as possible because there's not much that's more distracting or painful than running with a full bladder. Or even a half full bladder.

For rugby games I always make sure that my socks are pulled up before opening kickoff/second half kickoff. (They have a tendency to fall down and I hate taping them). And everytime we get scored on I pull them back up before the ensuing kickoff. If we're scoring and not allowing any, they'll stay down all game, but as soon as we get scored on they get pulled back up.

Hack, cough and gag my brains out. I don't know why, but the butterflies I get make me want to vomit (usually I don't, but it has happened). I think I've been doing it since I was 8 or 9 years old.

I'm the guy on the field that looks like I just smoked a carton of cigarettes.
