    I have to admit that is how it looked that dreadful Sunday night...and to use a Ford just drives the stake in deeper.

    First the Super Bowl, then Olympic Hockey...Ice Dancing is my new favorite sport.

    Do you think they did like in Braveheart, an stuck pieces of it around Seattle, like they did with Wallace's body parts?



    Sirscrapalot - New idea for next season.

    Not sure about Seattle but I did wonder what that chunk of orange and blue metal was in the parking lot of Mile High Stadium yesterday!?!?

    I just can't get enough of this video. It's going on my facebook page. I have a few very annoying bronco fans for friends, I think this might just make them cry, or go into full on nerdrage. lol.

    OP I can't thank you enough for this.

    KZ I'm mailing you a box of tissues, do you have preference?

    Sirscrapalot - Still laughing.

    LOL.

    I didn't mean to include you in the above, cept for the tissue part. Your likely the only Bronco fan I'd let in my cooler.

    See how much I like you? Plus you take it as well as you give it. Till next season my friend.

    This story made the Denver Post

    FERNDALE, Wash.—The Seahawks fans working at Scrap-It car recycling services in Ferndale got the idea when they saw the 1985 Ford Bronco in the scrap yard.
    They painted the Bronco orange and blue and decorated it with Denver's logo.

    They painted the huge metal shears that rip cars apart in Seattle blue and green with the Seahawks' logo.

    Then, The Bellingham Herald reports ( Seahawks fans in Ferndale get early start crushing a Bronco - literally (w/video) | Seattle Seahawks | The Bellingham Herald), the workers acted out their Super Bowl wishes Wednesday and had the Seahawks' claw tear the old Bronco apart.

    Crane operator Herb Parks says it was very satisfying and made him feel like he was part of the team.

    HA ha! That's freaking awesome.

    I've made it as far as Spokane, I ever do hit seattle I'll be happy to enjoy your 30 pack an bring my own.

    An who's the band? It's likely not..but reminds me of the guys who did eye of the tiger. lol.

    Tell your friend we(I) want more videos. It gets my vote for most unique place to scrap.
