Particular game day clothing, idiosyncrasies, superstitious habits, preferred atmosphere, etc. Maybe your fanhood has created a relationship argument, a noteable / funny story, breaking something valuable due to anger, interfered with your job. Whatever it is, let’s hear about your Duke fanhood. I’ll start with myself.....
• I watch 90% of the games at home, I will refuse to watch it else where if it’s a big game. I have a Duke fold-up chair that I sit in 3 feet in front of the TV. I don’t care if it inconveniences my gf or company, I have to sit there and feel in the game.
• (final 5 minutes or so) If Duke is playing a tight game or in need of a comeback and we hit a big shot, whatever my last action was - I won’t repeat it. So if my last action was looking at my phone, I won’t do it again until the game ends.
• My dog’s name is Kameron, she wears a Doggie Duke shirt on home game days.
• I was in Lexington for my cousin’s wedding. I went to the small hole in the wall sports bar to watch the Duke / UK game. 10 minutes before tip off, the bartender pulled out a stack of shirts to sell that said “I Still Hate Laettner.” She announced that shirts were $7/each and a bunch of people started migrating over to make a purchase. I asked how many shirts she had, she said 30. Pulled out my wallet and asked if I could buy all of them. She started pondering the thought and I said, “$210 is the total cost for all 30 shirts. What if I give you $300 and you keep the $90 as a tip?” — Sold. The whole bar went ballistic.
• I was in high school when Redick was a senior. I got kicked out of my English class because a kid wearing a LSU sweater flaunted it at me and I told him to GFY. Only time I’d ever gotten in trouble in school.
I’ll stop myself there. Let’s hear about y’all
