Seahawks Bandwagon Fans Should Really Know These 19 Things

Here are a few tips to help you masquerade as a real supporter.

The Seattle Seahawks have made the Super Bowl for the second consecutive year.

You know what that means: euphoria throughout the Pacific Northwest, and a whole lot of fans jumping on the bandwagon.

Anytime a team makes a championship, a wave of newborn fans rises up to cheer alongside the people who've waited years, sometimes decades, for ultimate victory.

It can be pretty annoying.

So for anyone who started rooting for the Seahawks last year, or is thinking of becoming a fan sometime before Sunday, here are a few tips to help you masquerade as a real supporter.

Knowing the quarterback's name is never enough.

The Kingdome.

Husky Stadium.

CenturyLink Field, formerly Qwest Field and Seahawks Stadium.

They roared at 137.6 decibels, a Guinness World Record, at a game against the New Orleans Saints in 2013.

Marshawn Lynch's 67-yard touchdown in 2011 sent fans into such a frenzy that the ground shook beneath their feet. The play would become known as the "Beast Quake."

The Seahawks legend was the NFL's all-time leading receiver when he retired.

He laid out the Broncos' Mike Harden in 1988, after the latter had injured him earlier in the season.

The Seahawks first made the playoffs in 1983 against a stacked Dolphins team and rookie quarterback Dan Marino. But they pulled off a massive upset, winning 27-20 after being down three points late in the game, and made it to the AFC championship.

He scored five touchdowns in the first half against the Minnesota Vikings in 2002.

The "12th man" being the loud, loud fans ...

In 2005, the New York Giants committed 11 false starts (charging or moving before the ball has been snapped) against the Seahawks. It was blamed on the sheer noise level of the fanbase.

Spoiler: Taima.
