this seattle game brings back great memories. i was in anchorage alaska
for a visit to my daughters. my first trip to alaska, for the birth of my first
grandchild. the night of the game she wanted to go shopping so being the
good dad i said okay lets go. i did have on all my cowboys gear just because
it felt good to wear all the long sleeve stuff and not be burning up like i usually
am in texas. i didnt realize alaska had so many seahawk fans. (duh..its their
closest team but hey geography never was my strong suit.)
anyway...the mall had a great TV for watching the game and thats where
i parked myself. as the end of the game drew near i was really catching
the flak from the friendly Hawk fans. then...... BOOM , Julius and the Boys
jumped up and snatched victory from the jaws of defeat !!
the 15 or so Hawk fans couldnt believe it...i danced a little and graciously
(yeah right ) acknowleged our superiority. i dont think i have ever enjoyed
a game more that i wasnt actually at. to top it off a few days later my first
grandson was born. all in all a great trip to Alaska.
