“I’m definitely superstitious, so while I’m watching the game, I need to stand in a specific place,” Lauren revealed. “And if I move around and they (the other team) score, I have to get back into my spot. So I’m superstitious in that way.”
But Lauren isn’t the only one. The other WAGs (wives and girlfriends) also have their own superstitions.
“I think all of the girls are superstitious in that way,” Lauren explains. “There’s specific places that we’ve seen the games that we won’t go to again because they lost the game.”
“We are all very superstitious; that’s our way of feeling like we have a little control.”
Learning about things like this adds more color to the perception of these individuals. It’s always great to hear about these tidbits.
