Gold thongs, table smashing, and four-sauce chicken parmesan.
Nope, not a new Vegas act, just a few of the superstitions we’re talking about in this week’s episode of Last Night’s Game. Join Amy and Scott as they unpack the wildest athlete routines and fan rituals, from Sidney Crosby’s no-mom rule to Tom Brady’s pregame naps.
We’ll cover:
The difference between a tradition and a superstition
Why fans refusing to move from the couch might be the real MVPs
The smelly, strange, and sometimes sweet logic behind pregame routines
Easy ways to spot and join in fan culture when you’re at a game
Whether you're superstitious or just a little stitious, this episode is full of fun, facts, and stories to steal for your next social gathering.
