OMMF Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 a Washington-Washington State game at Safeco Field Neither side would agree to that nor would the Stadium District. They had a bowl game there and that was it. It's a baseball-only stadium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JH42XCC Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 I know Safeco Field is primarily used for baseball but I think a football field fits very well in that ballpark, a la Bank One Ballpark in Phoenix and SBC Park in San Francisco. I have visual proof: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have visual proof: It fits fine. It's just not going to happen again. That's why we spent the other $500M for the building next door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JH42XCC Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 Maybe the Seahawks could've used that stadium instead of Huskie Stadium during the time Qwest Field was being built. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VandyDelphia Mike Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 So - both teams shared the same sideline? NCAA Baseball Champions | 2014, 2019 facebook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OMMF Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 So - both teams shared the same sideline? Yes. It was quite interesting to watch player substitutions especially in the red zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSU151 Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 edit - OMMF has taken it upon himself to argue the same things I would have (thank you OMMF).Maybe the Seahawks could've used that stadium instead of Huskie Stadium during the time Qwest Field was being built.Why play at a small, awkward stadium when a massive collegiate football stadium is less than two miles away?? No need to worry about an infield, because, hey, here's a football field already set up!! Hashmarks, endzones, and everything!! And what's that, it's in town?? We can fit more people? We can make more money at a bigger stadium? What are the odds? There are reasons why teams do what they do...they're called money and a bit of common sense. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
