On Sunday Funday, the Kansas City Chiefs take on the Philadelphia Eagles in the 2025 Super Bowl.

Among the hyped commercials, Kendrick Lamar’s halftime show, and Taylor Swift discourse, Seahawks fans can channel their team spirit for what’s sure to be an eventful night.

Here’s where to kick things off around town:
  • Last Call | Expect a big turnout at this Philly-themed bar.
  • Moss Bay Hall | Kirkland’s Queen Anne Beer Hall sibling has smashboxes, big steins, and huge TVs.
  • Rough & Tumble | This big party advertises a “gender-equitable fandom,” prizes, drinks, and a swag bag.
  • Lariat Bar | Enjoy free wings and halftime games.
  • Legion | Bellevue’s upscale sports bar from Seahawks legends Kam Chancellor and Richard Sherman has beer deals, games, and giveaways.
  • Vindicktive Wings | The owners of this laid-back Belltown favorite are Bills fans, so naturally they have a bone to pick with the Chiefs after the AFC match.

I don’t know what took me so long, but I finally had Korean BBQ for the first time — and what a treat.

My friend took me to So Moon Nan Jib in Federal Way and we got a huge spread of meat and all sorts of sides (with soju of course). Everything was so fresh and packed with flavor. I’ll definitely going back for more soon.
