Seattle Seahawks Jet Flies A ’12’ Over Washington State

Representation of the Seattle Seahawks’ 12th man can be seen everywhere, including the sky.

A newly designed Boeing 747-8 freighter decorated with a Seahawks-themed exterior flew over the state of Washington yesterday and traced the number 12.

Boeing Commercial Airplanes is based in Renton, Wash., just a few miles from downtown Seattle. All new planes must go through test flights and Boeing decided to show some Seahawks spirit in the process.

In a “fun facts” section of its website, Boeing noted the plane can carry 121 million Skittles candies (302,400 one lb. bags), in case Beast Mode gets hungry.
