City dedicates new “Fire Engine 12” at Station 12, in honor of the Seahawks

Sep29
2008 Written by Randy Corman

The Seahawks have retired Jersey Number 12 in honor of their fans, known collectively as “the 12th man” of the Seahawks team. So, it’s a neat twist of fate that the Seahawks training center is served by Renton’s Fire Station 12. And it was natural that we number the station’s newest engine “Fire Engine 12.” The new engine has been decorated with a Seahawks 12th man flag, and some other team emblems, which should give it appropriate decoration when it is needed as standby at large public events.

The Seahawks Mascot, their drum corp, and some of their Sea Gals were on hand on Saturday to help us with the dedication. Here is a picture from the event.

    Think of the future…

    Three thousand years from now, some poor archeologist will dig this photo up and will really have a hard time figuring things out.
