Superstitious Sport Fans 

Just trying to figure out if some of us sports fans are Superstitious or just down right Crazy, or Both. Many atheletes, fans, and couch potatoes have specific things they do or wear prior to participating in or watching sports. A basketball player may wear the same shorts every game while he's on a hot streak. A baseball player may fidget with his gloves between each pitch. Some athletes and fans have special socks they wear for games. My brother has a special pair of team inspired boxer shorts he wears to pro football games. 

Take these two buddies for instance. They are not only Sports Fans they are Union Suit fans. What's crazy about that!! They may live miles apart but you won't find them watching their favorite team on TV wearing anything other than their long red underwear!  Those union suits help ensure that their team wins or at least plays their very best, hopefully without injury!! 

And with college and pro football gearing up this time of year, you can bet they will be in front of their television sets, comfortable in their union suits!


And this guy in his red union suit looks like his team just won an important game:


Just don't drink so much beer that you doze off and miss the end of the game!!


What do you wear superstitiously when it comes to sports?

  1. Well Chris. I’m not much of a sports fan but this time of year I’m wearing a union suit unless I’m in the shower. Even though I have different colors most of them are red so I would fit right in with the featured sports fans……..Buckeye Mike

  5. Seth, if I lived in Maine I would probably wear my union suits year round. I live in NE Ohio and get buttoned up whenever I feel cold whether the calendar says January or July……..Buckeye Mike

    1. Buckeye, I've seen you numerous times over the years in these underwear blog postings of you in your union suits and boxer shorts. So, you like me, wear both depending on the weather... we do have a few warm days now and then up here in the north country, so boxers are my occasional choice too. I hope you will be joining the boys pictured in this posting and me in wearing red union suits for the football games today and throughout the upcoming playoffs. Can't hurt...Seth

    2. Here in Chicago today, I’m La-Z-Boying again in my favorite chair wearing a suit of long underwear and wool socks watching the Georgia - Texas game at the moment. I’ll be joining Seth and the rest of these guys watching football games over the next couple months in my union suits. I have a variety of different colors so will wear what is appropriate for each team. Although I live in Chicago now, my family homesteaded in West Texas so I’m wearing a white union suit for the longhorns!
      Corny, but I’m in my longhandles for the longhorns today. I don’t have a burt orange Union suit. LOL…. Ryan
