Hopefully this was the last game with the puke green unis and they start acting like a serious football franchise that cares more about winning games than selling (ugly) mechandise. Total embarassment wearing that clown shit and then playing like it.

Check this out... ESPN recap
It was the second touchdown, which Doubs caught as he was falling to the turf while tightly covered by Seattle's Devon Witherspoon with 4:59 left, that had opposing fans at Lumen Field loudly chanting “Go Pack Go!”
. “This is a tough place to play, it’s extremely loud, and I was shocked when our defense was on the field and I could hear our Packer fans. I definitely think that made a difference for us,” LaFleur said
That's a not working class Seahawks fans being priced out of a ticket. That's their rich fans out doing our rich fans. That's like TMobile getting overrun with bluejay fans, what's up with that. Wisconsin yokels controlling Lumen field, give me a break

The open market price of seats, adjusted for inflation, is not higher than it was when the 12th man was
a real thing. Also, back when the 12th man was a real thing, the teams were not necessarily any good.
IMO, the game-attending fanbase is reflective of the city of Seattle itself. dying.

I was on my coach during the game, so I'm a hypocrite.

The contractor who did our deck is connected with the Hawks FO. He's been a season ticket holder for almost 25 years. He says the fanbase has diminished over the years. His words...."they aren't rabid enough like they are in other legit sports towns"

There's this criticism of fans in Seattle. That the profile has changed, they are no longer working class and so as rabid. I'm saying look at what just happened. The green bay fans that showed up, they don't sound working class. Not only could they afford the tickets but the cost to travel to Seattle. And they seemed pretty rabid.

I think just here in the Wenatchee Valley, I personally know about ten guys or more that are die hard Packer fans. I'm not so sure all the fans you heard and saw last night traveled from Wisconsin.

Yeah, that could be true. Maybe it wasn't the Rams game the NFL would fix. Maybe it's Packers fans they want to embrace

I was a Packers fan as a kid.

Surprised to learn that the Hawks have not beaten a team with a winning record this year.

Need to let the backup QB have a few snaps in each game. Man, he looked rusty. That's on the coaching staff.
