Throughout the Seahawk’s football season, Meconi’s will offer a “Beast Mode” sub on Blue Friday and Game Day, complete with a bag of Skittles.

The colors you might see most often this fall are blue and green, not the gold and red of leaves throughout Thurston County.  The Seattle Seahawks are back in action for the 2014 season.

The 12th Man (and woman) comes out in force on Blue Friday and game day to share their team spirit and show support of the World Champion Seattle Seahawks.  Some of the biggest fans around can be found in the back offices and behind the counters of Thurston County’s four Meconi’s Italian Subs restaurants.

Robin Vaughn, Operations Manager, may literally bleed blue and green.  She’s a long-time, die-hard Seahawks fan and anyone who has experienced game day with her knows her passion.  And she’s not alone.  The entire staff, from owners to cashiers, look forward to each Seahawks game and enjoy seeing customers come in for game-day subs or for lunch on Blue Friday decked out in their 12th Man gear.

Last season, though, the Meconi’s crew felt a bit left out, sporting only their uniforms.

This fall, Meconi’s will be celebrating right along with the fans each Blue Friday and game-day wearing their newly designed Meconi’s 12th Man jerseys and offering in-store food specials including a weekly “Beast Mode” sub.

Hawks Prairie employees Stefani, Joelle and Meghan show their Seahawk’s pride in their new Meconi’s Twelfth Man jerseys.

“This season, we are really excited to get into the spirit of supporting the Hawks and sharing fun specials with local fans at the restaurants,” explains Vaughn.  “We are all big Seahawks fans and we want to join with the rest of our community and celebrate each week, having fun in the store and creating a festive atmosphere for other fans.”

Employees in all four Meconi’s locations will be wearing their custom Meconi’s jerseys each game-day and Blue Friday.  The jerseys were designed in partnership with locally-owned Sound Apparel  and a limited number are available for purchase at each store for $19.99. Even Meconi’s food distributor, Lacey-based Harbor Wholesale, wanted to join the fun when they heard Meconi’s plans and partnered with them to provide the new jerseys to all employees.

In addition to the cool gear, Meconi’s customers can look forward to several in-store specials throughout the season.  The first is the “Beast Mode” sub.  Each Blue Friday or game-day, a specialty sub will be featured as the “Beast Mode” special of the day.  Fans can look forward to the same quality ingredients and fresh baked bread on this sub, but taken up a notch in honor of fan favorite, Marshawn Lynch.  And, just so you feel a little more like the power-house running back, a bag of Skittles is included with each “Beast Mode” sub.

Enjoy a Dick’s Brewing Company 12 Man Pale Ale at either the Meconi’s Hawks Prairie or Lacey Blvd. location with your Seahawk’s Special.

For those not looking to indulge in the “Beast Mode”, the stores will be offering the 12th Man Special.  Each Blue Friday or game-day, enjoy 12% off select menu items when you wear your Seahawks gear or team colors of blue and green.  “Really, we just want to encourage people to join the excitement, get in the spirit, and participate in a fun atmosphere at Meconi’s on game-day and Blue Friday,” shares Vaughn.  “We feel we are a part of the Seahawk’s success as 12’s and we want to share that energy with our community.”

If you happen to be dining at Meconi’s newest location in Hawk’s Prairie or at their Lacey Blvd. location, you can wash down your “Beast Mode” sub or Twelfth Man Special with a 12 Man Pale Ale from Dick’s Brewing Company.

Hawks Prairie employee Stefani Johnson is excited about the new uniforms and the fun planned throughout the season.  “It’s exciting that we get to be a part of it, to show our spirit,” Johnson shares.  “Last year, on Blue Friday, everyone would come in wearing jerseys and we were just in our uniforms.  Now, we get to join the spirit, support our team, and share something in common with our customers.”

Drawings will be held throughout the season to win a Meconi’s 12th Man jersey.  Simply purchase one of the Seahawk’s specials and you’ll be eligible to enter the drawing.

And while these specials will only last for the football season, the team at Meconi’s is confident they will be offered right up to February 1, 2015.  Go Seahawks!
