Interception field goal where our banner would have been seen.



It would've probably been too small to be seen I reckon.

Touchdown
Richard Sherman is down!


About the only good thing to happen all night.

(He'll be fine, plus Seattle's secondary is dirty as hell anyway, plus he's an ass even if he does have good ball skills.)

That said, I was supporting the Hawks in the third - such was my disappointment in the Broncos. I wanted a shutout.

Our banner could have been seen from here, located just right of those in orange, left of the goal post:

There was probably liquid explosive in that banner.  Thank you TSA for keeping us safe from demons and devils.  It's now safe for us to watch head injuries on FOX.

What's the over/under for the final score being 42-0 in the first ever 420 Bowl I?

What a bummer! Next time let's find one of the elusive BTC millionaires and have them just take out an ad.

Having the word Bitcoin on there somewhere would probably get us a lot more attention.   You'd think the majority of people will look at that banner, shrug, and move along.  Even if they scan it there's no links to Bitcoin other than a site that also happens to accept it.

Still, good work getting it all organised etc Smiley

EDIT:  Oh, it didn't get in anyway?   Bummer Sad

Keep it dense, yeah?
Other than bumming sharpies, maybe that whole section needs to be bought out next SB, and everyone dresses in black or white, and the mob forms a massive QR code of clothing with a coordinator on the opposite side.

Haha, now that sounds like something that folk in online communities could somehow pull off. An expensive job, mind.

Somebody near the bottom of the stand should throw a Casascius coin into the end zone, that would get air-time assuming that a player found it. Of course, the person throwing would likely be ejected from the stadium and banned, but meh, the sacrifices we must make Tongue

Imagine if most the commercials suck, Seattle "shuts down" Denver, and our Bitcoin-themed banner was displayed. Wouldn't that have been something?

I see some kind of Asian language (could have been sharpied on white shirts), a Canada flag (non sequitur), numbers, and dead center the white banner seems to have a Seahawks logo on it. Still, they're all "prohibited" banners/signs/flags and security is RIGHT THERE.

Ready for this? Our banner would have been seen during that last field goal.



Wtf, why do all these people have banners/flags etc? Were they the lucky ones to smuggle them past security? Or maybe they were purchased within the grounds? Sucks, that would have been a great shot as well. Would have stood out nicely among the sea of generic banners.

Gutted that it won't be present on air during the game, hopefully there can be some kind of coverage - or at least photographs. Good effort, Phinney.

Thanks, bud. BTW, so far I've viewed some expensive shitty commercials, unable to recall a single brand during this penning. So fuckin' pathetic.

Ugh, I wonder how much they forked out to get their name in those commercial slots. I can understand why banners might be prohibited due to viewing restrictions, but we all know that the commercial reasons for prohibiting banners trumps everything.

Tape it around your upper thigh or stuff it in someone's bra.

- tip from someone who has snuck a vast number of oversized flasks into football games.

Just watched the FG online and the score is now 5-0, Seattle.

But that's not why I came to post about. Anybody else watching the game noticed all the banners during that last field goal? I am so pissed off right now over seeing them, expecting to see none, that I may call the NSA there at the game and inform them of the terrorist threats, for if they guys were able to get pass security with their banners, what other lethal weapons could they have possibly carried in on their person.

Doesn't the NSA realize that a piece of paper of the sizes I witnessed could easily slice somebody's head off? If only the NSA had cameras in place to see for themselves all of those terrorist in the stands.

What a fucked up a country I live in, the first time I've even penned, let alone thought such thoughts.

This is fucked up on so many levels.
