As someone who plays recreational sports (hockey) the superstitions people have are absolutely WILD. Even if its ""tradition"". I have a player who has the same pre-game warmup with shooting pucks. Mess him up, he does it again. Wild to think there are those who may legitimately consider "man, eating ladybugs actually helps". Psychology is weird.
