Anybody here have odd, vivid dreams about their sports team or sports in general before?
I once dreamt the Eagles beat the Bengals in 2010 in the Super Bowl at the Cowboys’ new stadium (this was when the stadium was new.) I told it to fellow Cowboys fans, who jokingly told me to lay off the drugs.
I also had a nightmare where the Redskins (what Washington was called at the time) beat the Cowboys 63-14 or something like that.
I once had a dream that Russell Westbrook punched me in the face, ha.
Last night, I dreamt that two Houston teams were in the championship simultaneously - the Rockets playing the Magic in the NBA Finals and the Astros (yet again, sigh) playing some other team.
Sometimes I have generic baseball-themed dreams, either watching a game or participating in one. I recall one very vivid dream in which I was in some wooden grandstand. Participation dreams, particularly ones in which I’m at bat, aren’t so vivid because the playing field dimensions are always way off. Like I’m playing inside an oddly-shaped box or something.
Definitely a dream. Nightmare? I suppose if you’re a Cowboys fan but every season must be a nightmare for you if that’s the case. Washington fans have no allusions of a successful season.
The night before a Bears’ game a few years ago, I dreamed that one of their backup defensive tackles scored a TD on a trick goal line play. My dream was super-vivid, in color, with replays and announcer commentary. It was so realistic that when I woke up I actually thought for a minute that the play was real and the game had already happened.
