The sports fans in Seattle are not of the same ilk as northeast sports fans (i.e. chasing folks out of Veterans Stadium for wearing an Aikman jersey OR throwing food at people in MSG for sporting an Elton Brand t-shirt). Although, those incidents can be found in other stadiums actoss the country, it is highly unlikely it will happen at Safeco, Key Arena, Seahawk Stadium, Bank of America Arena or Husky Stadium! It's simple, Seattle sports fans just aren't as rabid as sports fans in other cities.</font>
WHOA WHOA WHOA there Chex. Lumping Husky football fans together with the rest of the Seattle sports scene is a big no-no. There is a huge difference between the rabidity of Dawg fans and the rest of Seattle's sporting landscape. Dawgs fans care about their football team through thick and thin.
Thank you, flytoeat. There need to be more M's fans who do not think that 116 wins is so darn special. Getting to the World Series is special, and until they get there, they will be underacheivers/chokers.
About the only hostility in the Northwest is between Washington and Wazzou, and even more between Washington and Oregon. Hostility over baseball? ROTFLMAO!
