For the final home game of the regular season, the Seahawks hosted some special guests to serve as the honorary 12 Flag raisers. Twelve different Seahawks fans from across the globe raised the 12 Flag on Sunday from the safe comforts of their homes.
The group of international fans, known as the Sea Hawkers, raises awareness and funds for various charities and has chapters located across the United States, Germany, Canada, Latin America and more. The 12 Flag raisers included Simon Kell in Germany, Lynne Jarrett in Canada, Steve Sullivan in the UK, Philippe Agat in France, Roger Abanto in Peru, Sterling Compton in Hawaii, Jason Ranchoux in Canada, Heriberto Franco in Mexico, Shirley Schonenbach in Alaska, CW4 Kent Frye at Joint Base Lewis McChord in Lacey, Wash. and veteran/police officer Shaun Minks in Port Angeles, Wash.
On Sunday, those lucky Sea Hawkers were able to interact with Seahawks players virtually before the game. Honoring Seahawks fans from across the world was a fitting way to conclude the 2020 regular season, which has clearly been unlike any other.
