The past Sunday marks the first time that a Seattle sports team has won a major title since the late and great Sonics in 1979. On Wednesday, a historic parade will take place downtown within tantalizing proximity to our fine academic institution. This is not only a huge deal, but a major community event. An absence from the parade will be an absence from the community of 12, and that would be simply unnacceptable. Throughout my many years of living in Seattle, I cannot recall a single event that united our city as much as this. Not partaking in festivities would be criminal. Our student body, which is comprised of at least 95% Seahawks fans (conservatively) will either be attending the parade or the play. If school is not canceled, an odd amount of people will "go to the dentist". I think I can feel a horrible flu coming on just around 4th period on Wednesday.So please- Just cancel it. This is a fabulous occasion for the twelfth man, and having school on Wednesday would just be cruel and pointless. Go Hawks!
