	i'm borrowing this idea from the main board, i thought it was entertaining. Do you do anything special to bring luck to the Mountaineers? Like wear a certain shirt, hat, whatever? Like if things aren't going well my wife and i will switch seats to change the mojo. it worked well at the Marshall game.

	Yeah, I do the hat. Except....I wear it backwards when they're on D, regardless of the score. I started doing that last year, but I used to do it back when Talley was playing. Also, when they're struggling, I turn off the TV and hit the radio. This seems to work most of the time, at least it settles me down. There was one occasion when nothing worked, that occured on December 1, 2007. LET'S GO MOUNTAINEERS! HATS FORWARD!

	hoss- i love the backwards hat idea! my good friend will walk his dog when things are going badly, like you said it serves 2 purposes. calms him down and brings better karma. i've also noticed that things seem to go better when i'm listening instead of watching, but i don't deliberately turn off the TV unless I can't help it.

	I drink budweiser but I am sure everyone drinks something at or during the game. I also dress my two young boys up in their WVU clothes for luck.

	Wear my Gold Slaton jersey inside-out on Home games and on top of my WV sweatshirt for away games.

	I do not shave on game day. This started when I was in the Pride, but I do not know who started it or if it was a running tradition from before.
