Seattle Mariners

Safeco Field is home to the Seattle Mariners of the MLB.  Safeco Field has a capacity of over 47,000 and has a retractable roof incase of bad weather.  The stadium is also used for the Washington State Championships as well as some college games.  The Park also has a large display of art featuring pieces like steel cut outs of the players, a chandelier made of 1,000 baseball bats, and much more. 

Opening in 2002, Quest Field is home to the Seattle Seahawks.  Since its opening, Quest Field has had one of the greatest home field advantages, as the stadium is typically one of the loudest stadiums in the NFL.  Since 2005, the visiting team has committed more false start penalties than that of any other stadium in the NFL.  One of the major attractions of Quest Field is its unique design.  “The Hawks Nest”, a 13-story tower with a scoreboard at the top, as well as bleacher seating for 3,000 fans sits behind the north end zone.  In addition to the Hawk’s Nest, the overhanging roof design is also unique to Quest Field, as it keeps 70 % of the seats dry during Seattle’s rainy climate.  The maximum capacity of Quest Field is 68,000, and can be expanded to 72,000 for special events.  Starting in 2009, Quest Field will also be home to the MLS Franchise in Seattle, The Seattle Sounders FC.
