Good morning, 12s.
Here’s a look at what’s ‘out there’ for today – Wednesday, October 9 – about your Seattle Seahawks:
One Legend Meets Another
What a sight to see; a spectacular Instagram post from our very own veteran LB Bobby Wagner, as he blessed our Instagram feeds on Tuesday with a few photos of him meeting a popular American actor that we all know and love—Will Smith.
The series of photos also reveal that Wagner didn’t only get to meet Smith, he brought along with him an action green jersey as a gift for the award-winning actor.
Wagner expresses his excitement for the encounter in his caption, which reads, “Man this was really a moment for me! Someone I really look up to @willsmith I appreciate you.” Let’s be real, this is an assembly of two legends.
Smith was in town to promote his new film, Gemini Man, with its director Ang Lee. The pair were at a Microsoft learning event when Wagner was able to make an appearance.
One of my favorite parts of the All-Pro linebacker’s Instagram post would have to be the comments he got from some of his fellow teammates. Duane Brown’s “man this is dope,” or Quinton Jefferson’s “wtf!!!” indicate that Wagner will most likely be answering some questions about the encounter in the locker room.
Social Post Of The Day
Today’s ‘Social Post of the Day’ comes from Seahawks tight end Will Dissly, as he turns to social media to ask the mind-boggling questions of life that no one else has the guts to ask.
