Winging It

RALLY TIME:  Today was a "Blue Friday" - the day before a big Seahawks' playoffs game on Saturday. 

We typically wear our Seahawks gear every Friday during the season, but today, we went the distance, which meant Annabelle donned her blue wings. :)

The official rally was at Renton City Hall (the Seahawks' training facility is in Renton). We arrived about 11:20, right before its 11:30 a.m. start.

We hadn't even made it up the steps yet when a reporter from KOMO asked the kids to stop so she could get a photo. :)

The rally was upstairs, on a plaza.

Up on the plaza, we got some free stuff, including signs and hotdogs. Hooray! 

At the rally, there were things you'd expect, like the Seahawks cheerleaders, and the team mascot, Blitz.

There were special guests, like former UW Huskies and Seahawks quarterback Brock Huard exhorting to crowd to chant and cheer.

There were hundreds of fans in all sorts of Seahawks gear, some custom made.

On our way out, believe it or not, we saw a real live Seahawks pony. 

I think maybe now I've seen everything!

The guys who had the best view of the goings on were these firemen.

But they had to walk a whole lot of steps, so they earned it!

If you happen to need a little motivation for this weekend's game, this should work ...
