A U.S. Army veteran, president of the Sea Hawkers Booster Club and a Seahawks season ticket holder, Elise Robinson was nominated for the 2025 Fan of the Year by those closest to her because of her "boundless energy and passion." As president of the Sea Hawkers Booster Club, Robinson organizes events and tailgates, bringing fans together, while spearheading donation drives to support local charities and community organizations.
"It means a lot," Robinson said on being named Seahawks Fan of the Year. "I haven't felt appreciated in a while. So it does mean a lot to me."
Robinson is known for creating an inclusive and welcoming atmosphere, building genuine connections with all fans and leaving a lasting, positive impression on everybody she encounters. She truly embodies the spirit of a 12, inspiring the community with her generosity, enthusiasm, and unwavering love for the Seahawks.
"I'm trying to make a 12 everywhere," Robinson said. "I bring things to away games, and if I see a kid that's even remotely interested in us, even if they're wearing the wrong jersey, I would try to convince them, and I would help them out and get their [player] autograph that they want."
A big reason for Robinson's inclusivity and welcoming spirit is because of what the Sea Hawkers Booster Club meant to her after her time in the military.
"When I first became a member at first, I was depressed. I had to deal with PTSD from the military and being around the energy and being around positive things brought me out of that darkness. So that's what I try to give to everybody else. It just means a lot. I just feel like somebody else could be going through a bad day and just by speaking to them and saying hi to them and just acknowledging them could change them out of that mood."
This recognition for Robinson is at the top of her list of awards.
"I'll tell you the truth, I never even thought I would ever get it, but this is like No. 1 now."
