As a guy who lives several states away... most of my gamedays go down in comfort of my home. ...usually alone (with no one to turn to), a pillow fort & the fetal position seem to be my "go-to".

....don't knock it until you've tried it.

But enough about when we play clempson...

Usually, I start the day by convincing myself that Tech has turned the corner and is reascending to its rightful place of football prominence. Then, in the spirit of balance and fairness, after about half of the games are over, I pat myself on the back for my astute observation and after about the other half, I kick the dog and lament that not a whole lot has changed over the last 40 years...

LMAO!!! What did the dog do to deserve that? Unless it's an in bred solid white English bulldog of course

Since moving to Seattle my game day tradition has become rolling out of bed a few minutes before kickoff and struggling to make an Irish Coffee before the game starts. I root for non noon kick offs solely so I can wake up later.

Sadly, this will be the first year I can’t do it, but my gameday tradition was waking up early (since all our games are nooners), putting on my dri-fit and shorts, drinking a lot of water, putting on a band uniform, watching College Gameday, heading to the Campanile, warming up, sprinting to the library steps, dancing on the library steps, sprinting to the library, playing “Bud”, marching down the hill playing “White & Gold” into “Ramble”, playing some songs outside the stadium, running into the tunnel, participating in the secret trombone ritual, and singing “To HELL With georgia” with the rest of the band before taking the field for Pregame. It was exhausting as hell, but man do I miss it.
