Fellow 12th man/woman, been a long time reader and between seahawks.net and fieldgulls I continue to improve my knowledge of the game and it's great to be able to be finally be a part of the support for the hawks!
Born and raised in Seattle (white center to be exact), mom and pops went to UW but pops got a engineering job in CA so we moved down to Silicon valley when I was middle school, and it was tough being the lone mariners/hawks/sonics fan while everyone as school went for the a's,giants, niners and warriors for the most part down here. Still got the Griffey posters in my college dorm!
Most of my friends are niner and cowboy fans, besides a few raider fans but they are not very relevant anymore haha. I have had to deal with the countless comments/insults/taunts the past few years since harbaugh took over from the niner guys but I still wore my mack or hasselbeck jerseys throughout! I will never forget the absolute joy I felt with Romo botched snap while being surrounded my cowboy friends.
Grew up watching lots of games at the Kingdome and since moving down here have never been able to catch a hawks game in seattle. Watching all the madness that happens every week at home makes me want to be a part of this so bad and I just feel like all of us truly deserve this. We are constantly overlooked but nothing makes me smile more than listening to the radio and hearing 95% of the people here absolutely terrified of our team and playing in Clink.
I even got my girlfriend to become a fan and she is wearing her Lynch/Sherman jerseys and other hawks gear to school every day after our game! We have been winning so much the past two years, she just keeps wanting more but I can't complain :mrgreen:
Sorry I know this is getting too long, but one last thing, I really am trying to give a xmas present for the gf for the last home game, I am hoping to get some good seats for the game! It'll be a great chance to show her my "REAL" hometown. What are the best seats that I can possibly have for around 300-500 each?
Thanks everybody and sorry for it being so long! Just so much pride in my team and our fan base right now I can't contain it.
