Some pics from the trophy's appearence at Big Als in Vancouver this last Friday, July 11. Thought maybe some of you 12s that are unable to attend one of these events would like to see a bit of what it was like.

This was outside the front door of the building. The inflated Lomardi is about 9 feet tall...

This picture was on the front page of the local newspaper, The Columbian. I thought it was a good representation of the size of the crowd. BTW, I'm the tall guy lower middle, left of the woman wearing the horizontally striped shirt.

I loved you in Rocky IV

Big Al's looks like a very nice bowling alley.

Lombardi look sexy.

Nice job sharing the experience. Looks like a nice turn-out. Good on the team to take the trophy on the road to share with fans across the region. Good stuff.

The Seahawks are truly Cascadia's team. Not many teams enjoy being the "home" team for an entire region of North America and it's good to see the team make such a good effort to get out to the faithful.

Could be called "Pacifica's Team" as well. We have a number of 12s in Hawaii as well!

I really wish I could've made this event.

Big Al's is an incredible place to see a Hawks game. There as so many TV's, and one HUGE screen, that it's impossible to miss the action. And that's just the main bar. They also play the volume up enough that you can hear it, even with a few hundred people in there. It's like any of the best places I saw games in Vegas, but magnified. The beer and food is a bit pricey, but i guess you have to pay for all that atmosphere and staff somehow.

Thanks for sharing the pics.

Sweet! Thanks for sharing. I wanted to get there, but couldn't. It's nice to see what it was like.

BTW, did anyone else notice the error on the big, wooden Seahawks logo in the first pic (next to the inflatable Lombardi)? It's an awesome-looking piece, but it could use a teensy paint redo. :)

I always pictured Hawksfansinceday1 as a 5'7", 140 pound super-nice stoner guy with a snake mullet and a permanently affixed smile.

LMFAO...............Well, I did used to smoke weed pretty often. I've now succumbed to old guy syndrome and rarely if ever indulge.
