I wonder when the next time that will happen!?
…I need to back track to document what a fun Sunday night we had in downtown Seattle at the Sounders Soccer game against our Cascadia rivals the Portland Timbers.
We always start with our local military representatives holding the flag while we sing The Star Spangled Banner. This night there were over 50,000 voices strong singing. That is really cool. Total attendance for the night was 66, 452.
…and the rockets red glare, the bombs bursting in air!
Our Emerald City Supporters went all out with a banner depicting the Sounders coach Sigi Schmid going all in.
An all time favorite player on our Sounders team retired earlier this year and he was honored this night with the golden scarf. He really is beloved by the fans and the stadium went electric when he was honored!
As the sun set in the West the sun set on Portland, too. We sent them back to Portland defeated 3-0.
So I’m still going around and around on my theme and I’m not finished yet. Double Oye!
