Skittles is bringing back their Seahawks blend for Super Bowl XLIX
Marshawn Lynch and the Seattle Seahawks have probably made the popularity of Skittles rise to new heights over the last few years, with Lynch’s love for Skittles and people throwing them onto the field when the running back makes his way into the end zone.

Skittles even went and made their own Seahawks blend last year.
With Seattle returning to the Super Bowl to take on the New England Patriots, Skittles has brought back their Seattle blend again for Super Bowl XLIX.
Fittingly called the “Seattle Mix,” Skittles has put on display the Seahawks colors of blue and green. With all the free marketing they get from the Seahawks and Marshawn Lynch’s insatiable appetite for Skittles, it makes sense for them to make a mix for the Seahawks and their fans.
With the growing amount of Seahawks fans across the country and the rabid fan base they have up in the pacific northwest, the Skittles will surely be a hit.

To get the new edition bag of Skittles, fans will have to show up to the Seahawks pro shop at CenturyLink Field at 11 a.m. today.
They will probably sell out of the Skittles quick, so for all the Seahawks fans that want a pack, get there early because the Skittles are sure to go quick.
If Seattle wins the Super Bowl, it won’t be surprising to see Skittles do something else for Seattle. The connection between Seattle and Skittles continues to grow, and it’s the perfect storm of marketing meeting championships.
The Seattle mix is back for Super Bowl XLIX, could it be back for Super Bowl 50?
