As of mid-February 2026, reports indicate that the Seattle Seahawks have declined an invitation to visit the White House following their Super Bowl victory, choosing not to participate in the traditional celebration. While invited, the team is not expected to make the visit to Washington, D.C..

I am trying to find verification........so hope it isn’t just wishful thinking. Sorry, will post when I find full and true verification.

1. k and r

2. Outstanding.

FBI to launch immediate inquiry into Super Bowl refs.

[underpants]

3. A big old 🖕to Trump

[Ritabert]

4. Good for them.

[Auggie]

5. Too far to travel ...

(That was krasnov's excuse for not attending the Super Bowl)

[lark]

6. Congratulations Seahawks for showing the way to handle the orange loon in chief.

[Marcuse]

7. In retaliation the FBI is ordered to confiscate the Seahawks' Lombardi Trophy for display beside the Nobel Peace Prize.

8. That is a big "kiss my butt" from the Seahawks

I salute your championship and your integrity.

Well done!

[SergeStorms]

9. I KNOW the Patriots would have gone....

old "rub-and-tug" Kraft is a big MAGAt, so attendance would have been mandatory.

The Seahawks probably figured Trump would want one of their Super Bowl rings.........you know, because Trump was such a crucial part of their winning team this year and he thinks he deserves one.

10. Lived in Seattle for 20 years... and kinda meh about American football... but DAMN

SO PROUD OF MY SEAHAWKS. Dang!!!!!

[mwmisses4289]

11. Yay, Seahawks!

Lived in and around Seattle for 20+ years, miss it like crazy.
Not a big sports fan, didn't watch the game, but glad they won.
Glad they won't be going to white house.

12. FYI...

...this has yet to be verified as 100% accurate and true so we might want to hold off on celebrating for a minute.

Just sayin'...

13. Hope springs eternal, but I think I will wait to see it before I believe it.... NT

[Chicagogrl1]

14. Woohooo!!!!!

Wonderbar!!

[DinahMoeHum]

15. I'd wait for an official confirmed decision. . .

. . .but AFAIC, they should not go there. The WH is too toxic a place nowadays.

And that goes double for the US Olympic team, when they return from Milan/Cortina and their various World Cup circuits.

16. Coming up soon.... ICE is being deployed to Seattle

[vapor2]

32. I would literally not be surprised

Squashing dissent/free speech etc

[twodogsbarking]

17. I too will not be visiting the White House at least until it is vacated by the current tenants.

[generalbetrayus]

20. Me, either. I believe the stench, both figurative and literal, to be too much for my sensitive nostrils and brain cells.

[Escurumbele]

25. And disinfected! Remember after trump's first term? They had to fumigate, and clean thoroughly.

Imagine the stick from the buffoon shitting his pants all day...The bedroom...Oh my god!

[angrychair]

18. While I think they will decline

As far as I know there is no official rejection of a WH invitation.

19. Seahawks Decline

There once was a team from the Sound,
Whose Super Bowl glory resound—
When summoned to D.C.
For White House jubilee,
They chose to keep feet on their ground.

The Seahawks, triumphant and proud,
Had dazzled the fans in the crowd;
Though victory grand
Brought a White House command,
They opted from pomp to unshroud.

An invite to Washington came,
A customary champion’s claim;
But rumors would say
They’d not make the way—
Tradition unmet by acclaim.

In mid-February’s chill air,
A question was floating with flair:
Would champions go
To the capital’s show?
The answer suggested, “Not there.”

So Lombardi in tow they remain,
Content with their hard-fought campaign;
While D.C. would wait
At the ceremonial gate,
The champs let convention abstain.

23. good poem.:)

22. Seahawks are loosers, overrated, in decline, etc., etc., get him some ketchup bottles

That is what we will hear from the buffoon about the Seahawks, projecting himself...Good for them, I hope they stay with their decision because we all know the buffoon will come back with some threats, he cannot tolerate anyone who touches his ego.

What a disgrace! Damn! I want this to end...

And to help it end ASAP we must all unsubscribe to all the companies that are helping the buffoon, such as Amazon, Disney+ (remember how fast Kimmell came back?), Paramount, and a few others. We can all manage without them, but they cannot manage without us. When they get their act together we can go back and subscribe again. I understand that we have become accustomed to the easiness of buying stuff from Amazon, but Costco has a lot of the things we get from Amazon, Wal-Mart which is slightly less evil also has everything you can buy from Amazon. I buy books from local bookstores, one to support local business but they also sell used books for the same price as Amazon. It is a hard choice for all of us, but we can do without Amazon, Whole Foods, and the other companies helping this government, once their revenue falls, they will wake up and suddenly become real patriots, they will stop supporting the buffoon.

24. Where? Where's the link? So far, I've found NO SUCH DECISION as of 10:26 am PDT. But I hope it is true. nt

[maxsolomon]

26. They should decline but they haven't done so yet.

MFer is probably not extending an invitation to avoid the issue.

As a billionaire, Jodi Allen is probably agnostic on Trump, but the millionaire players probably aren't. 90% of the roster is black.

The city definitely isn't. We hate his guts.

The rest of WA State fucking loves them some Dotard.

28. I don't think Trump would invite them

Even if the team came, there would be several high profile players who would announce their boycott, and that would be the lead story. Trump fragile little ego won’t take a chance of that public disapproval.

[KPN]

29. As a lifelong, die-hard New England Patriots fan, I am now also a Seahawks fan -- if in fact this is true!

Keeping my fingers crossed!

[SheltieLover]

30. Good!

Prob don't want the orange menace to steal their trophy & rings!

[LetMyPeopleVote]

31. This made me smile

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

34. Has to be AI

The Space Needle doesn't look like that. Pete Carroll is no longer coach though that barely looks like him.

The Seahawks new coach is Mike McDonald who's 38 and doesn't have gray hair.

[a kennedy]

35. Mike McDonald was on Jimmy Kimmel.....I got see and hear from him.....seems like a pretty cool guy/coach.

33. As a Seahawks season ticket holder I say, " Right fucking on!!!!"
