The Stadium

Overall Rating: B+

 

Overall the stadium was pretty nice. Location was great and easy to walk to, there really isn’t a bad seat in the place, the concessions have a lot of local food and the best part is the atmosphere of having the “12th man”.

 

The 12th man is very symbolic in Seattle and one fan always gets to raise the flag. At this game it was a 95 year old military veteran that was incredible. Also a father and son (both military veterans) sung the National Anthem together and the Seahawks gave them tickets to the Super Bowl!

 

One BIG setback is getting in and out of the upper deck sections. It is cool that the middle section goes up to about 50 rows, but it takes forever to exit. They need to have additional stairs or escalators that would help this process. It was also a little issue getting up and I was there plenty early.

This game was a lot closer than I expected. Still got the win, but the Cardinals had chances to ruin that for me. In the end the Seahawks Defense came through.

The Stadium

Overall Rating: C+

 

Another stadium with nothing really around it. Although this one has the awareness that it is nowhere and created a great pregame area. It’s a giant lawn with live music. You can bring whatever you want, chairs, tents, grills, anything and just setup and party (you can leave your stuff right there too and it won’t get touched).

 

Inside the stadium was nice. Lots of food, lots of space to walk around. The escalators are on the outside of the stadium and plenty of people had to walk back out the doors (it wasn’t obvious to do that and no real signs). They have a few huge areas to stand around and have some food but no standing tables. Plenty of room for tables too, like a huge area, but everyone is awkwardly trying to balance their food.

 

We left the stadium with ride share. Don’t do it or at least walk very far away from the field (maybe even through the corn field – you read that right, a corn field in Arizona). The ride share was one of the most ridiculous and unorganized crazy things I’ve seen this trip. It took us over an hour to get a car.
