All us 12s going to be missing Paul Allen this weekend when it comes to raise the flag.
Not only did he save the team from moving to LA, he shepherded the team into the 21st century.
But aside from football, Allen is one of the few billionaires I have ever respected. The work that he funded with the Allen institute is having a tremendous influence on neurosciences. And his environmental efforts have lasting impact.
He would have loved this team. They are what makes football exciting.
So thank you Paul. My his memory be a blessing.

Yes! ….Proud to be a resident of PaulAllenstan !
Paul was a real one ❤️
Had to google “Was Paul Allen Jewish?” After reading this. Thought he was one of us.
Edit: Not sure why I am getting downvoted and being sent Reddit help messages? “May his memory be a blessing” is a Jewish saying. Made me think he might have been Jewish….
Loved Mr Allen what a great Washingtonian. We miss Sir you were the best owner.
Not to mention that he also cofounded Microsoft
Say what you will about the deal, but south lake union is massively contributing to the local economy because of him.
Saint Paul Allen. Literal savior of the Seahawks.
We need to win his family and our magnificent city another Lombardi
Hologram Paul to raise the flag!! I love him!
This one is for you Mr. Allen!

A great Washingtonian. Can’t say the same of other tech titans of the region.
How about Jodie for keeping John Schneider and not dumping the team off?
I was devastated when he passed away, he done so much for this team!
Thank you Mr Allen!
Voters and public funding saved the Seahawks. This guy used both to get even RICHER after already being one of the richest humans in history. I love my ‘hawks but let’s not rewrite history.
Possibly the only billionaire I have a positive view of
Iconic teeth
SEA….
As both a Hawks and Blazers fan, I was proud to have Paul as an owner.
Chris Pratt is a great ambassador for the Seahawks so if they ever need a promoter, they already have one
Fuck yeah! Thank you, Paul & Jodie!!!
Paul Allen was the opposite of Jerry Jones or Al Davis in terms of micro management. He hired great people and trusted them .
He’s also the opposite of most of Mariners ownership, he prioritized wins over profits
Shout out to Jodi for building a superbowl contender too. Y’all shit on her hard. Give it up.

It may be a good time for a Paul Allen statue. His legacy needs to be honored and preserved
