    Went to the seahawks packers Sunday night game during the ice storm of 08 (I don't remember what year it was) all the freeways were frozen over after the game and cars slid off the road and were abandoned up and down the freeways. We luckily slid off the road right at a hotel otherwise wed have been sleeping in the car that night

    That was 2006, and pretty sure a Monday night game. Not a Seahawks fan really but the game was a lot of fun in the snow. The drive home to SnoCo was 6 unmitigated hours of misery. Worst driving experience of my life.

    It was "06. I was there. It was right after Thanksgiving. And it was Monday Night Football. And I remember a bunch of snow not ice??? Maybe a different game??? Pack looked good the 1st half and then tanked it in the 2nd half.

    75 and 77 vs. USC sitting in end zone bleachers.
    75- USC coach McKay said he would never coach the Seahawks because of the rain. Ever time the wind would blow and it would downpour the crowd would yell and McKay would cower under his jacket. UW won 8-7

    77- Moon scores on a 70 yard+ run in the rain to seal 28-10 win

    Yes, this, to you and grundle. The game was awesome, afterward was not.

    405 was an ice skating rink

    We attended a shit game, played by a shit Ty team, in shit weather in 2007. Can't remember the opponent. We left at halftime. It was one of the last Husky games I attended.

    ASU or UCLA I think. Both were shit teams but we made them look like conf champs. Fuckin Ty

    Nobody went to the 2000 Stanford game?

    If that was the Curtis Williams injury game I was there. It was a steady rain but not a downpour. When CW went down no one seemed to know the seriousness of the injury until they brought out backboard, neck brace and the ambulance onto the field. Marques drove UW to the victory with (I think) an eight minute drive to close out the game, but the victory was not gratifying as the UW fans were concerned about CW.
