It's crazy, but I bet it will be fun to look at the statistics.

I was reading around in Dallas Cowboy Fan's thread that he's 8-0 at the new stadium. What intrigued me was that Catch17, kind of a pessimistic poster, was 0-3 at games.

So, really, what are people's records at Cowboys games? I'm 3-0 at the new stadium, and I get in trouble sometimes for being positive.

Is bbgun an 0-fer or batting .125?

Is Hostile close to perfection?

Has dboy214 ever seen a game?

I'm just curious to see how this turns out. Don't be afraid to participate!
 
I feel superstitious about a lot of things.

I have jerseys for the bruins red sox and cowboys hanging in my room. I feel like perhaps I jinxed all those teams, and was considering bringing them down sunday. The bruins won, so I left my cowboys jerseys up.

I will also think about whether or not wearing a particular players jersey is potentially jinxing them...

Sometimes I won't record a game because I feel if I record it they will lose, and I obviously won't want to watch it again.
 
I don't wear anything Cowboys related on game day.

:eek::
 
Funny...there's this sports bar in Memphis. Everytime I go there and watch us play, we win. 14-0 #realtalk. There are certain ppl I can't be around whenever I watch us play. They are jinxy. I know it sounds crazy, but its the truth.
:banghead:
 
Does my attitude affect the outcome of games that I attend?

No.

But the outcome of the game damn sure affects my attitude.

Especially since I travel from northern Missouri to see them play.
 
ummm... Im 0-1 going to games. Went to my first game last year when we went to D.C.
 
I'm 2-58 on days where I wear Cowboys gear. One of the two was the 2009 playoff victory. The other was Super Bowl 27.

I don't wear Cowboys gear, or even their colors on gameday.

I didn't have a choice in the 2009 playoff game. I was there in person and had to represent.

How do you know 58? And that is ridiculous.
 
Not quite the same thing, but in the same vein. To all my fellow science nerds out there, go read up on the double-slit experiment. It's pretty trippy stuff.

Summary: It appears that, at least at the quantum level, watching something happen actually affects how it happens.

I keep a tally. I suspected my curse when I was much younger. I wore Cowboys gear for the very first time during the 1981 NFC Champ game against the Niners.

I'm dead serious on this. I cringed when I got tickets to the 2009 playoff game. I was tempted to wear plain clothes, but didn't want to be mistaken for an Eagles fan.

8-6 at Cardinals games, 1-0 at Chargers.
 
4-0 at games I've attended.
My brother is definitely a major jinx! Every time I watch a game with him, we find a way to blow it. He says his favorite team is whoever is playing dallas:rolleyes:
He was watching with me when we lost to washington 14-13 after being up 13-0. Also the last game at texas stadium against the ravens. There have been others as well. I dont recall dallas winning any game that I've watched with him.:banghead:
 
Funny, The Emperor doesn't seem like a chick screen name.
 
1-0 live (got to go to the game vs. Colts last year)

I've been to a few live sports game, and the away team ALWAYS wins

2-0 Penguins vs Predators (at home) and Thrashers (at home)

1-0 Jets vs @Colts (playoff games)
 
I'm 6-3 at the new stadium.

#edit. I'm also 2-0 this year. Going to next week's game, so hopefully 3-0.

:laugh1:

Tony Romo has thrown two picks in the last four games. Your avatar is outdated. Go pick on some other Cowboy to show support in your own twisted way.
