Literally the first line is about how it’s not important and the group just thought it was funny and ran with it
Cry babies. Fuck em.
I’d be upset if I had to live in Seattle too
They can check the standings and move on
Imagine being upset about a tradition rooted in…..whatever happens at MOA. I lived a few blocks from Pike Place for a few years and it’s mostly just tourists that wander through. Locals are just grabbing a few things (shout out Daily Dozen Doughnuts!) and getting the fuck out of there.
I love our new fish toss. I’m not the best at identifying fish, but ours looks like a bass? I think they’re really leaning into the Northwoods stuff (the loon call, the bear growl, The Great Outdoors “let’s make noise,” etc.). Fishing can be important in Seattle, and important to us too. 🤷🏼♀️
My husband and I were at the game Thursday night and purposely stayed for the 3 stars just to watch the fish toss.
We stole the fish toss, they stole the sport 🤷♂️
“couldn’t even choose a different animal orrrr?”
smh dude doesnt even know that walleye and salmon are different animals
Is there more context to this?
I mean the first time I saw us with the fish I was like “oh we stole Seattle’s thing”
But after thinking about it, this is a fun thing for kids. It gets people invested in the 3 stars, and it adds more local flavor and interest, which gets people excited. They should he happy to see their idea catching on rather than attempting to gatekeep.
It really, truly, is not that deep, and I doubt the majority of Seattle fans are mad beyond a couple of loud weirdos on Twitter.
There are so many things in sports that were started by one team and then others did it and now everyone does it. Obviously not every team will start throwing fish, but “stealing another team’s thing” is not a big deal.
What is this even talking about? Why are the Wild singled out?
“How DARE you mock our fish tossing tradition!”
I managed a group who were based in Seattle and can tell you the reason it’s so cloudy there is the heat generated by the collective friction of everyone patting themselves on the back and the hot air they constantly blow out of their beaks being offended does not mix well with the cool fall/winter months.
I just can’t imagine getting upset about stuffed animals to children. Like, at most, roll your eyes about it being unoriginal.
We were blessed with the land of 10,000 lakes. Were we just supposed to look at em?
bros have been around for 3 years and think they have a rich culture LOL. definitely tracks with my buddy who’s a kraken fan and thinks they’re cup contenders bc they beat Edmonton in the pre season
this is actually just a “philly fans are fucking losers” post in diguise
Sounds like going home with the next nights dinner 🤤
Don’t people also throw fish at Nashville games?? And ofc the octopus for Detroit and Detroit doesn’t complain about stolen seafood valor.

The only state that panders harder than ours
