San Juan Villa, Seattle's 12th Man



With the Seattle Seahawks amazing run through the 2014 NFL Playoffs, the Seattle fans have been labeled as the best in the NFL. The self-designated "12th Man" has made a huge impact on the Seahawks' post-season success. Likewise, our very own team from San Juan Villa has been doing their part, representing the 12th Man. The following is an interview we had with San Juan Villa's administrator, Erin Parker:

Seems like San Juan Villa has caught the Seahawk fever? Yes we have!!!! There are a lot of die hard Seahawk fans and “12 men/women” in our community, including some of our Resident’s. In some ways, many of us have ALWAYS had the fever!

What impact has your SJV staff had on the Seahawks' playoff success? We immediately hung a 12 man flag in our entrance to the community when they made it to the NFC playoffs, and the staff participate in the “Blue Friday” craze! We think that subliminal support by all of the 12’s is one reason for their success. Not to mention they have the best Defense in all the NFL.

Has the "12th Man" brought your staff closer together? It has brought a sense of team to the staff. Those who were not interested before, hopped on that bandwagon and it has been a fun ride so far.

Who is the craziest fan on the staff? Our Maintenance Supervisor, Joey. That’s all he talks about all day, everyday!!!!! He gives the Twitter and NFL updates, and we talk about the news of the Seahawks everyday…….

Have any residents caught on to the excitement surrounding the Superbowl? There are a few. We make sure the staff set them up to watch the Seahawks every game day. Many of our resident’s are life long PNWesterners and have followed the team since they came to Seattle.

Score prediction for the Superbowl? 24-20 Seahawks!!!!!!!
