Not even freezing temps could keep hundreds of Seahawks fans from gathering on the north steps of the Capitol for a rally Friday morning to cheer on the Hawks before their home playoff game Saturday night against Detroit. Secretary of State Kim Wyman joined Gov. Jay Inslee, Lt. Gov. Brad Owen and former Seahawk defensive back Marcus Trufant in firing up the cold crowd before they took turns raising the Seahawks' "12" flag high above the Flag Circle. Before the ceremony, Trufant came to Wyman's office for a brief reception, where the former Seahawk signed autographs and had photos taken. Go Hawks!Image
