Okay, so I read that Rafael Nadal arranges his water bottles a certain way before every match and won’t step on the lines between points. Got me wondering—what are some of the weirdest sports superstitions you’ve come across? I know athletes are a superstitious bunch, but some of these routines are wild! 😂 Does anyone have their own weird pre-game rituals, or know of any that are super out there?
 
Oh yeah, athletes and their superstitions are on another level! 😆 Michael Jordan used to wear his old college shorts under his NBA uniform for good luck, and Serena Williams always bounces the ball five times before her first serve. Some hockey players won’t touch the conference trophy before the Stanley Cup Final because they think it’s bad luck. As for me, I don’t play sports seriously, but I definitely have to wear my “lucky” hoodie when watching my team—just in case! 😂
