Hi Diana,

It was a well-played game - you should be proud of your Packers. I practically needed a defibrillator at my house.

Russell is a class act and usually a good player - couldn’t believe the 1st 3 quarters.

I heard a discussion on the radio about the Packer fans and Seahawk fans at the game. They mentioned that both were very respectful towards one another, Hawks fans shook Packer fans’ hands after the game and said things like, good game. Not always the case with other teams’ fans here - 49er fans are the worst.

Thought you might be interested in this story, I thought it was very touching. While there are always a few idiots that are exceptions - if they get out of hand, they get tossed from the game - low tolerance level for bad behavior by fans and security, it shows that us Seahawk fans try to be cordial to other fans.

This is the story on our local news, but it’s been in the national media, too (just saw the update about Sherman, which is cool):

Seahawks fan’s gesture touches Packers family:
