Seattle's 12th Man - Saturday Snapshots

I'm not a football fanatic, but a person would have to be blind to avoid the 12th Man Fever* that has hit the Seattle area! So on a sunshiny Thursday afternoon I thought it would be fun to drive around my part of King County, Washington, to capture images of fan support for the Seattle Seahawks team. I found boosters in some unlikely places! Whether you're rooting for the Hawks or the Patriots (or completely indifferent), I hope you'll appreciate the community spirit I found and that you enjoy the game.

*From Wikipedia: The 12th man or 12th player is a term for fans of teams playing American football or association football. As most football leagues allow a maximum of eleven players per team on the playing field at a time, referring to a team's fans as the 12th man implies that they have a potentially helpful role in the game.

Some places are even closing on Super Bowl Sunday

This one made me smile.

Even the animals are getting into the spirit

And so is a nearby casino

My neighborhood fabric store has what you need
for your Seahawks fan wardrobe

I'm sure divine intervention would
be welcomed too!
