THE SEATTLE SEAHAWKS are taking drastic action to crack down on bad behaviour from fans this season.
Some games at Lumen Field last season were sadly attended by unruly and abusive fans.

And the Seahawks brass will use covert measures to stop louts from causing trouble and ruining games for decent-mannered supporters.
The franchise will deploy undercover police officers in the stands to ensure fans are following the team’s code of conduct.
The deployed cops, however, will disguise themselves in rival teams’ jerseys.
The measure is being implemented to stop rival fans from being harassed by abusive or drunken supporters.
It also aims to curtail any disruptive or illegal activities taking place in the ground.
The Seahawks will also call on fans to do their bit to prevent thuggish behaviour.
A snippet of a statement read: “Fans can anonymously report any inappropriate activity that is disrupting their enjoyment during the game by texting a message to HAWK12 (429512).”
The Seahawks are no strangers to deploying undercover cops to police the stands, utilising them back in 2013.

The Seahawks kick off their 2025 NFL season on Sunday, welcoming the San Francisco 49ers to Lumen Field.
Head coach Mike Macdonald and his troops head into the new season with a massive degree of “clarity” on who they want to be as a team.
He recently told reporters: “How do we really build what we want to build?”
“How do we get there? What’s important? Who do we need to get there?
“Who am I as a coach, as a leader? There’s just all those things.
“Look, and there’s things that I learned this week through our process that I didn’t know that are sometimes tough things to learn about yourself and your style.
“And all in the effort to just try and get better. So it’s been fun. It’s been a lot of fun.”
