Seattle might be home of the 12th man, but a few members have some explaining to do.
With the Seattle Seahawks trailing 19-7 with five minutes left, some fans made a decision to go home. They had seen enough.
It was raining all game, sure, but IT'S THE NFC CHAMPIONSHIP GAME. And it was in the high 40s and early 50s — not exactly arctic conditions.
So the people who left the game still got wet. But missed one of the nuttier comebacks in recent NFL memory.
Ouch. The Seahawks scored two touchdowns in a two-minute span to take the lead for the first time all game after a four-turnover performance, survived a game-tying Green Bay Packers field goal to force overtime and then the game-winning Russell Wilson-to-Jermaine Kearse walk-off touchdown.
Unreal. The Seahawks scored three touchdowns in about six minutes of game time in regulation and overtime to go back to the Super Bowl after winning it last year.
Some fans will have to watch the highlights of what they missed for a ticket they — likely — paid hundreds of dollars for. For leaving early. For shame!
