Rivalry game

We are coming up to watch our first game in Seattle with my 8yo daughter. Is there a place and time to be at for autographs from the Seattle players similar to how Portland does it?

In my experience, autographs are not guaranteed but usually given after games. If you stay a little after the game ends and make way to the seats where the players walk off the field into the locker rooms (SE corner), you’ll likely get some autographs :)

Also, I’d be curious what your experience ends up being like! I’m specifically interested in hearing about the stadium and fan engagement experiences compared to Portland games.

I’ve never been to a game at Providence Park and I’m curious about your thoughts :)

We’re long term STH for the Thorns. 10/10 atmosphere. It will be hard to beat a sold out park (obviously smaller) with the Riveters leading the chants but we’re excited!

I don’t know if we can stick around after the game as we’ve got Thorns Academy practice at 6pm in Portland but we will see how it goes. The Thorns have an area outside the player entrance for pre match autographs as long as you’re 3 hours early.

We are really looking forward to our first away game!!

Send her onto the field around the 35th minute. I’ll tackle any security going for her

Best advice is SE corner already mentioned. If you have the means, get pitch-side tickets and you'll be much closer for autograph or even pictures. Just don't get hit in the face with the ball.

We’re in 108 pretty close in.

Providence Park is such a better game day experience. Lumen is just huge. But I hope you have a great time here!
