Instagram Inspiration: Seahawks Spirit
Go Hawks! For real this time.
By Kirsten Abel September 17, 2015
After a Seahawks loss, do you ever feel like it was partially your fault? Like maybe you could have done more as a fan—cheered a little louder, sent more good vibes toward the television, or decked yourself out in more blue and green gear? It’s a silly superstition, but I feel it every time.
Last Sunday was an especially tough loss, in overtime, and after we’d been waiting so long for football to return. This week, just in case, let’s really go all out.

Get hyped for the game with photos from these five awesome Instagram accounts. Kickoff is at 5:30 p.m!
