The Battlehawks Come to Seattle

The XFL took a few year hiatus after covid hit and it was unclear if it would ever return. We had a good time going to games in St. Louis so of course we had to cheer on the St. Louis Battlehawks when the came to town to face the Seattle Sea Dragons.

The game was at Lumen Field which made it seem almost like a real professional football match.

There were a lot of dragon costumes to go around.

Lydia was proudly sporting her Battlehawks gear.

Gabby and Derek made an appearance.

The good guys came through with a last minute game winning field goal and the day was saved. We had a very vocal St. Louis fan sitting in front of us who provided a lot of amusement.

My Very First STL Battlehawks XFL Game

We bought tickets to a St. Louis Battlehawks XFL game. There was a decent amount of hoopla outside the stadium before the game that we walked around and checked out. We got some pretty sweet crowns from the Crown Room at Ballpark Village. So crowny.

I feel like I must seem even more heroic having fun in the face of the world burning down.

Now that I have an Apple Watch I get all of the world's bad news delivered directly to my wrist.

Everybody knows that before you even see a new team play a game you have to stock up on merch if you ever hope to be a true fan.

I found a casino voucher. The rich get richer!

Ka Kaw is one of my favorite laws by far.

The game was fine. I'm not super sporty. I spent most of my time trying to get my picture up on the jumbotron.

And I succeeded. So there's that.

I had my touchdown shirt on so the other sports guys knew I liked the sports and we could bond.

In a low budget move they seemed to have started closing the bathrooms before the game was even over.

After the game we got some autographs. I will treasure this always, whatever-your-name-is.

We went to Molly's afterwards to break some hearts.
