I have a huge dilemma.
I have season tickets and if we finish with the first seed, Games hosting could be the weekend 17\18 and if the hawks win hosting on the 25th.
I booked a holiday with the wife leaving the 18th returning Feb 1 so I have to decide, go to the Games and cancel holiday and piss of the wife or see if any hawks fan can take my tickets.
I could also call my Seahawks rep and see if I can opt out of playoff tickets now.

Of course we won’t know if we finish with the first seed until after the niners game.
No you can’t go with my wife on holiday….thats not an option!

Unless the Seahawks are absolutely terrible, I would never ever ever schedule a vacation during the playoffs because you never know. With that said, go on vacation because the tickets will be a fortune and you will able to sell them for a huge profit.

I know, but I was thinking early on that we might make it as a wild card but this season has been more of a gift than anything.

You have a good point. Before the season began I felt like we had a good chance to make the playoffs, but winning the Division seemed like a long shot. Still, when the playoff tickets became available, I kept my nose-bleeds, and added a pair of significant upgrade tickets.

But...you have to take your wife on vacation. Now you'll have extra scratch to keep her even happier.

The Seahawks are your mistress for roughly 5 months while you have to live with your wife all year. It’s purely a mathematical formula that gives you the answer by using simple arithmetic.

Take the wife. But my wife, currently, is being an asshole so I could be sold into the tickets.

Not seeing the issue here. I’m sure she has a friend from work…sally, misty, jack, or ryan?

Fund the trip for them, let them enjoy themselves and you take a bro to the game. Plenty of hostels in Sea, go cheap on your trip and let them hit hot tubs and massages.

It’s just logical.

The downtown hostel costs more than the less expensive Airbnbs.

cancel the vacation. you can go on vacation any time. this is going to be only the 4th time in 50 seasons the Hawks have the #1 seed. you can't get these experiences back and you never know if they will ever come around again.

Exactly. Wives come and go, but Hawk Playoffs are forever!

JK, keep your relationship with your wife as much a priority as possible; there's really no substitute like it!!!

But, ask for her opinion after you explain the incredible historical significance of the next few games for Seattle and your connection to it, and see if you cannot convince her to vacation a slightly different time.

Point taken. Sleep on a park bench if needed and support the team.

If by chance the wrong decision is made and the holiday takes priority...buy the tix and sell to a die hard on .net. Keep the tix out of a scalpers hands and unavailable to opposing fans.
