Seattle Throws a Party Fit for Champions as Seahawks Celebrate Super Bowl Victory
A few days removed from their dominant 29-13 win over the New England Patriots in Super Bowl LX, the Seattle Seahawks brought the celebration home. And if the energy inside Lumen Field and on the streets of downtown Seattle is any indication, the 12s were more than ready to return the favor.
Lumen Field Turns Into a Victory Stage
The morning kicked off with head coach Mike Macdonald and the team stepping onto the field, hoisting the Vince Lombardi Trophy in front of a sea of screaming fans. And yes, the red Solo cups were out in full force - the kind of detail that lets you know this wasn’t just a formal appearance. This was a party.
The crowd? Electric.
Packed with families, school-aged kids, and die-hard fans who’ve waited a long time for this moment. There was no shortage of blue and green, and no shortage of pride.
In the Pacific Northwest, this wasn’t just a sports event - it was a civic holiday.
Ernest Jones Brings the Heat (Again)
Middle linebacker Ernest Jones, never one to mince words, took the mic and delivered a message that was as raw as it was passionate. Let’s just say if you’ve had anything negative to say about Sam Darnold, Seattle’s defense, or the Seahawks’ offensive line, Jones had two words for you - and they weren’t “thank you.”
It was classic Jones: fiery, unapologetic, and fully embracing the underdog-turned-champion mentality that’s defined this team all season. His T-shirt? Let’s just say it matched the energy of his speech.
Parade Prep: From Army Trucks to the ‘12th Pony’
As the team wrapped up celebrations at Lumen Field, the scene shifted to Fourth Avenue, where the championship parade was set to roll. Fans lined the streets early, some blasting their own music, others waving flags, and all of them ready to welcome their heroes.
The Seahawks didn’t disappoint on the visuals either. Army trucks were lined up to carry players through the city, and, in true Seattle fashion, there was even a horse - dubbed the “12th Pony” - making an appearance. It was the kind of quirky, unforgettable touch that only adds to the lore of a championship parade.
Security and Spirit in Full Force
With a crowd expected to reach up to a million, law enforcement was out in full force to ensure things stayed safe. But the vibe was nothing short of joyful - a city united by football, finally getting the chance to celebrate together after a long, thrilling season.
From Kimmel to Cane’s, It’s Been a Wild Ride
In the days since the win, the Seahawks have been everywhere - from late-night TV to Disneyland, and even behind the counter at Raising Cane’s. But today was about the fans. The 12s, who stuck with this team through every twist and turn of the season, finally got their moment to let loose.
Seattle’s not just celebrating a Super Bowl title - it’s celebrating a team that defied expectations, rallied behind a new quarterback, and brought home the city’s second Lombardi Trophy. And if today’s scenes are any indication, this is a moment that will live in Seahawks lore for a long, long time.
