Hey everyone!
I have been a Seahawks fan for the last 15 years, but being from Ireland, I never had the chance to make it to Seattle for a Seahawks game...but that s going to change on September 15!!
I used to be obsessed with the SuperSonics, and then got into american football after watching Warren Moon throwing a hail mary to Joey Galloway when I was about 15. Needless to say, going to Seattle was a childhood dream of mine.
For my 30th birthday, my lovely fiancée basically made that dream come true, by getting us flight tickets, an apartment for five days and tickets to the home opener against the 49ers! She had been planning it for a year, and I still cannot believe it...i'm literally over the moon as ye can imagine!!
Now, I had been to 2 pre season games a few years back in San Diego, but it got nothing on the CLink and,well, it was preseason...
It is going to be our first trip to Seattle, and first proper NFL game. I would like to ask for your advice as to what to do prior to kickoff. Is it fun to hang around the stadium? Is there much tailgating happening in Seattle? Does one need to know people to actually join the fun? We really want to have the ultimate Seahawks experience, as god knows when we ll be able to do that again!
Also, excluding sunday and the pro shop signing on tuesday, we have three full days in Seattle. What would you reckon be nice to visit? We really want to make our stay special, and would love if some fellow 'Hawks fans could point us in the right direction!
Thanks,
Thomas
