Sports Den

I received a deal to this place which is odd… I totally don’t follow sports. But it was set to expire, so I got the only thing I could imagine using… beer glasses. Two Mariner, 1 SeaHawk. For $ 9 each (OUCH!).
The first time I washed them, the two Mariner glasses completely lost their logo. So I go back downtown, go back to the shop, and ask to trade the blank glasses for SeaHawk ones. First response was it was my fault, as it does not say «dishwasher safe» (when have you seen that on a beer glass?). I pushed back saying a $ 9 glass should be better quality and finally the kid behind the counter gave me the exchange, muttering the whole time «my boss is going to kill me». And then he warned me not to ever put the glasses in the dishwasher again.
So please note– over priced does not mean quality. I guess those logos are painted on with watercolors!

Back when my son was obsessed with the Tennessee Titans — and why a boy from Seattle who’s never been to Tennessee… — anyway, we would go here for stuff for his room. Since I will never make a trip JUST to shop for sports memorabilia, we went here so we could wander the waterfront too. Plenty of stuff, jerseys, banners, all that, but I thought it was a bit pricey. Not surprising considering its touristy location, but I mostly made him spend his own money. Hey, it builds character.
