From Google”There are 121.50 miles from Seattle to George in southeast direction and 149 miles (239.79 kilometers) by car, following the I-90 route.” The writer should have said from Seattle, instead of from Spokane. Spokane is way north of the route from Seattle to Pullman and does not figure in the trip, although George is 120 some miles west of Spokane on the route to Seattle.
I hope the band members recover in time for tonight’s game.

Also a strip map of exits on I-90 where you can scroll to exit 143:

I am wondering what they were doing going past the Highway 26 exit to Pullman, maybe getting food at George? Conditions were icy.
