If you’re a coffee addict/fan of the Seattle Seahawks and are currently residing in the state of Washington, Friday (tomorrow) is your lucky day.

Why? Let’s let the fine folks at Starbucks explain:

"While the Seattle Seahawks have home-field advantage for Sunday’s NFC Championship Game, their fans have home-state advantage in more than 400 Starbucks stores in Washington. To celebrate the spirit of 12s (a nickname for Seahawks fans everywhere), Starbucks is offering tall brewed coffee for 12 cents to customers wearing Seahawks colors on Blue Friday, January 17, 2014 at company-operated stores and participating licensed stores. Starbucks partners will join in the fun by wearing Seahawks colors all day."

Now I hear Starbucks can be very hard to track down in Washington, especially in the city of Seattle, but I’m sure dedicated coffee drinkers will be able to find at least one store.

So what’s San Francisco going to do to counter this? May I suggest 49-cent sourdough bread bowls? Because those things are freaking delicious.
