Opening Night Rituals

[ABM]

Do you have any opening night rituals?

Me? Not so much.

Plan on stopping by a local (Pizano's) pizza joint, enjoying a cold micro while my pizza is being baked, then take it home and watch the Blazers win on my big screen,

Fun, huh?

Nonetheless............

GO BLAZERS!!!!!!!!!!

 

[MIXUM]

prepare for worst

Sure would be fun watching a Blazer game with you.

Not.

 

[Reep]

Nachos, beer, dress my girls up in jerseys or cheerleading outfits. I get to wear Batum, they get Aldridge and Rudy (glad I kept my jersey).

Oh yeah, and I cover the room in aluminum foil to keep the Mixum bad vibes out.

 

[hasoos]

Eat at Russel Street Barbecue.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Every year I wear the same thing on opening day, or the day before if opening day is on a weekend. Black slacks, White dress shirt, Blazer red tie.


Then a tradition I recently started. Getting my Nate McMillan voodoo doll, folding it's arms, and sticking pins in it.

Wow, I wasn't aware he could be so animated?

Apparently someone accidentally didn't clear soon enough for Brandon

 

[BlazerBeav]

We always hit up Red Robin on the way to the game.

This will be the first Home Opener I have missed since 2001

 

[crandc]

No, guess since I'm not local I don't have one. I have a baseball ritual: Listen to Hear Comes the Sun on LP. Not CD, not iPod. Perfect!

It's been a long cold lonely winter
It feels like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun
It's all right!

I mean, what would I play for this time of year? Wintertime Love?

Come with me, dance, my dear

Just doesn't work.

scratch that! I am going!

 

[The Professional Fan]

Nice!

My ritual? I get drunk and yell a lot.

 

[XXPrimusXX]

Be careful crandc, your age is showing. Haha.

I love Abbey Road. Side B is where that album really takes off, starting with Here Comes the Sun and launching into the greatest medley of songs that was ever arranged.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

Bottle of cristal and a few lines.

 

[illmatic99]

I started my first day of work today. It was a decent start.

Hope the same from the Blazers.

 

[LittleAlex]

I try to not commit any serious crimes.

 

[TradeNurkicNow]

bowl, beer and blazers = best

Oh, you bowl @ Big Al's?

Mixum, the topic is "Opening Night Rituals" not "Nightly Ritual'

As for me, I also go the Pizza route with a nice bottle of Oregon Pinot Noir.

Hot wings, cold beer, and the kids get a movie downstairs because my wife is in Hawaii for work this week. Pause the game at halftime, put the kids to bed, and catch up on DVR to the end of the 3rd quarter.

Otherwise, I'd be at the game.

I kid I kid (that's not me) I'm always too busy for rituals. Making the game on time would be a miracle!

Your wife is always somewhere without you? Are you married to Mrs. HCP?

Thats what I'd be doing, seriously!

 

[mook]

I receive fellatio. I haven't noticed that it makes much difference to the team, but it seems like a good ritual anyway.

Does your Avatar have anything to do with your ritual?

I think I will prepare for the inevitable, Blazers win by a bunch!!!!

She travels for work. She is working literally on Wakiki Beach this week. Do you have a problem with this?

Well no wonder he is so animated during games, with you sticking pins in him he can't make good decisions. I now know what is wrong.

I do.
