non-mercer related: pop visits seattle.

pop is back from enjoying seattle with friends greg and laura and the city's new MLS club. the inaugural game was amazing, even though it was played in an american football stadium. 32,000 people showed up, stood the whole time, raised their scarves, and cheered for their team, who won 3-0. pop hasn't experienced such energy since World Cup 2006, when he and greg watched the United States tie Italy with 45,998 people in Kaiserslautern.

seattle is a fantastic city with great attractions, stores, bars, beers, scenery, architecture, and people. pop can't get enough of the pacific northwest.

back to mercer tomorrow.
