Fire up the grills, dust off the flags, and break out the cowboy boots because it's game day! Football is back, fall is in the air, and I think we can all agree on these 10 football facts!
1. The entire town is united.
Even if it's only for a few hours, it's cool to see everyone coming together to cheer the home team to victory.
2. Day drinking is allowed.
Because what's a football game without a few beers?
3. It's impossible to predict the outcome.
Sure, there can be a heavy favorite to win the game, but no one knows exactly what will happen until the last snap.
4. Everyone loves a good upset.
Nothing is more satisfying than an underdog taking down the big dogs every now and then. I'm looking at you App State.
5. Making friends with random people.
Everyone, and I mean everyone, loves a good football game. Who cares if you don't know the person beside you; odds are you'll high five after every touchdown. It's a special bond.
6. The unique team chants.
Screaming until you lose your voice is definitely allowed on game day. In fact, it's encouraged.
7. Coaching the team from the couch.
If you're watching from home, you can relate to yelling at the tv after your team threw the ball when they definitely should have ran it.
8. The pregame rituals.
Whether it's wearing the same jersey, or same pair of socks, game day rituals are not taken lightly.
9. Getting into heated arguments with your friends.
Because Luke Kuechly is the best, and there's no arguing that.
10. Your team's sharp new uniforms.
Look good, play good. It's important to come out looking intimidating.
And finally, it's all about the spirit of the game. Win or lose, game day is the best day!
