I traveled with three of my roommates
Friday: fly out 7:45 AM Eastern, land 10:20 AM Pacific.
- They were at WWE Smackdown that afternoon, I spent the time exploring the Olympic Sculpture Park and watching the sunset over Puget Sound.
-Then we met with three GameFAQs friends for drinks, which was really cool

Saturday
- Grab breakfast/drinks with a friend before heading to the University of Washington football game, a total blowout but with scenic views. Met another GameFAQser there
- go to the Seattle Sounders game, also one-sided but fun
- walk 15 minutes uphill (everything in Seattle is uphill) for ice cream
- take the train to meet up with GameFAQs friends for drunk mini-golf

Sunday:
- at the bar for 10 AM NFL games
- go to the Mariners game, which ended up being one of the wildest baseball games I've ever seen
- wind up walking through a park in the pitch dark with my roommate

Monday:
- Go to the Aquarium after breakfast
- go to the Museum of Pop Culture
- watching Monday Night football in a sports bar that also had shuffleboard and skeeball
- fly out 11:20 Pacific, land in NY 7:30 this morning

Discuss, ask me anything, whatever

Was it this last huskies game against Portland? I work next to the stadium, so my co workers and I were keeping an eye on traffic then.

Did you visit the ice cream place next to the Walgreens up the hill from the University village? I believe it has one, and or two arcade machines in it.

I havnt been to the pop culture museum, and or aquarium in a very long time. Have zero memory from experiences. Other than enjoying the aquarium a bit.

No chowder for me. MoPOP was super cool. I'm sure they rotate out exhibits and such, but the Jimi Hendrix stuff was really cool to me, and the indie game exhibit. I'm less into grunge, but I checked out the Nirvana/Pearl Jam areas as well.

I was actually at that Mariners game on Sunday (rooting for Atlanta, the GF is a huge Braves fan). I had joked with her that the Braves would rally and come back in the 9th, but I didn't think they'd actually do it. Can't believe they also gave up 2 homers after that to lose it.

One of the guys we met there is a Braves fan from BC, but he seemed to take it all in stride

They had those same exhibits when I went in 2018ish I think. Did they still have the area where you can jam with other people in sound proof booths?

The Mariners were up 6-2 with two outs in the 9th, and gave up 5 runs, only to come back and win it in the bottom of the 9th, 8-7
