Seattle celebrates the 2014 Super Bowl Champions - our beloved Seahawks - with a Parade and Stadium Celebration on Wednesday, February 5th 2014 - (Info. and map included!)



Soooo excited for the Seahawks, Seattle and the 12's!


The info. below is from the Seahawks website if you are thinking about joining in the celebration tomorrow. FYI - FREE tickets were offered for seating at Safeco Field to watch the festivities on the big screens, but as of this posting I have been in the online waiting line for just about an hour. They are probably already gone but I thought I would give it a shot. You may have better luck! (2nd link below in blue.)
Yay Hawks!
" Are you ready for one of the biggest celebrations in Seattle history?
Tomorrow's Super Bowl XLVIII victory parade will culminate with a brief championship celebration within the friendly confines of CenturyLink Field with Seahawks players, coaches, staff, and the Lombardi Trophy.
Seahawks season-ticket holders have been invited to attend Wednesday's at-capacity event set to begin at roughly 1 p.m. PT. Fans will be able to watch the team's victory parade beginning at 11 a.m. on the stadium's video boards with soda, water, and hot dogs available for purchase at concessions stands throughout. Gates open at 10:30 a.m. with open stadium seating. Season-ticket holders can still print tickets to the event through this evening by visiting their Account Manager.
The adjacent Safeco Field will also open Wednesday to carry a live feed of the victory parade and CenturyLink Field's on-field presentation on the ballpark's large video boards. Tickets to Safeco Field are free and available to print on a first-come, first-serve basis right here. Seating at Safeco Field will be general admission with the field's gates opening at 10:30 a.m.
Parking will be extremely limited at CenturyLink Field, Safeco Field, along the parade route, and its surrounding areas. Carpooling and utilizing public transportation are your best bets here. Wednesday's forecast calls for a high of 32 degrees and sunshine, so be sure to dress warm and dust off your favorite pair of shades.
All of Wednesday's activities will be broadcast live by several area news stations, with a large number of viewing locations available along the team's parade route (4th Avenue). A live stream will also be available here on Seahawks.com.
