1. It depends on who you're rooting for...
..but a football game can't affect a presidential election.

3. Packers win good
Since 1948 if redskins win incumbent party retains white house.

5. Since the mid 1930's it's been a 100% predictor.

7. My FIL just sent me this GO PACKERS
FOOTBALL + ELECTION from Snopes

Did you know....??

The Washington Redskins have proved to be a time-tested election predictor. In the previous 15 elections, if the Washington Redskins have lost their last home game prior to the election, the incumbent party has lost the White House. When they have won, the incumbent has stayed in power.

This election year, that deciding game takes place on Sunday, October 31 ... vs. Green Bay.

Go Pack!!!
