World's Biggest Snowball Fight – Seattle Sets a Record

KC — Fri, 18 Jan 2013 01:38:41 +0000

Recently about 5,800 people gathered near the Space Needle in Seattle to attempt a world record for the world’s biggest snowball fight. All I’m thinking is “C’mon Missoula, we can beat that record.” Granted, 5,800 people is a lot. But not really. Offer up some drink specials downtown, maybe a couple sweet band’s and “BOOM” [...]

Soundgarden – Black Hole Sun [VIDEO]

KC — Tue, 08 Jan 2013 00:36:17 +0000

Soundgarden can be considered one of the founding fathers of Seattle Grunge. Starting in 1987 with their album “Screaming Life,” and eventually hitting it big with their 1994 album “Superunknown.” The album made it onto the charts thanks to their single “Black Hole Sun.” The video for “Black Hole Sun” has got to be one [...]

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell's Phone Number is Now Public Following Controversial Call by Replacement Refs in Seahawks – Packers MNF Game

Jordan Dawson — Tue, 25 Sep 2012 16:59:32 +0000

There’s a lot of angry Green Bay Packers fans right now, and rightfully so — It’s pretty bad when even Seahawk fans are agreeing with you. In case you missed it, though I’m not sure how you couldn’t have at least seen the replay by now, the Seahawks were awarded a touchdown during a Hail [...]

11-Year Old Breaks Hand Punching Superhero In The Stomach

Jeremy Taylor — Mon, 18 Jun 2012 10:30:04 +0000

When we last checked in on “real life” superhero ‘Phoenix Jones,’ the Seattle-based crime fighter was getting arrested after he peppered sprayed a group of brawlers outside an area nightclub.

Jones might get on the nerves of the authorities — who would rather he just call them then involve himself in such incidents — but he has become somewhat of a folk-hero in the Pacific Northwest. Even so, even heroes have bad days.

Phoenix Jones – Seattle's Superhero

KC — Thu, 03 May 2012 05:03:23 +0000

Last Spring when I was in Seattle for a Deftone's show, I found myself drunkenly wandering around downtown Seattle alone. In search of the infamous Phoenix Jones (and a pack of smokes). I did everything in my power to get his attention. For one : I was "drunk in public" two : I had no problem "Jaywalking" and three : I was a suspicious male wearing a dark hoodie and walking down dark alleys. What else do you need to attract attention from a guy looking to stop "evil-doers?"

Seattle's Space Needle Returned To Original Color

Angel — Thu, 19 Apr 2012 15:10:32 +0000

When I first heard about this I thought it was a joke. Painting the entire Space Needle gold? Yeah right, and I also believed it when they said space aliens were going to land on the ‘M’ during last year’s Griz Homecoming Game. OK, nobody ever said that about the ‘M’, but the Space Needle [...]

Vidiot: Deftones "You've Seen The Butcher"

KC — Thu, 29 Dec 2011 21:00:33 +0000

Angel and I both agree that this video is one of the hottest to come out of 2011. As morbid as it may sound. The hottest part of the following video is the library full of chicks in their underwear, dancing around as the ceiling rains blood….. I KNOW! WE NEED COUNSELING. I do have [...]

Angela Rypien of the Lingerie Football League — Crush of the Day [PICTURES]

Chris Illuminati — Fri, 11 Nov 2011 21:29:05 +0000

What better way to celebrate 11/11/11 than with #11 of the Seattle Mist — the lovely Angela Rypien. Angela is the quarterback of the Seattle squad and if her name seems familiar it’s because her father was former Washington Redskins quarterback Mark Rypien. Angela is our crush today for not only her looks but for [...]

Nirvana's Krist Novoselic to Play Seattle Show Celebrating 20th Anniversary of 'Nevermind'

Chris M. Junior — Thu, 18 Aug 2011 20:37:25 +0000

Since Kurt Cobain’s death in 1994 and Nirvana‘s inevitable breakup, Dave Grohl has stayed in the limelight and has flourished as the leader and frontman of Foo Fighters.

Krist Novoselic, meanwhile, has put music on the back burner for the better part of the last 17 years. But Novoselic has picked a good time to strap on his bass again for the public: a Sept. 20 celebration and fundraiser in Seattle to mark the upcoming 2oth anniversary of Nirvana’s ‘Nevermind’ album.

Looks like we’re getting yet another chance to see Chino and the boys. Which is good, great even, cuz me n Strip Club KC can’t seem to get our shiz together long enough to put our asses in the car and get out to see these guys. We even missed ‘em at the Spokane show! [...]
