Reps DelBene, Butterfield wager on Seahawk playoff game

With the 2015 NFC playoffs entering the divisional round this weekend, Reps. Suzan DelBene (WA-01) and G.K. Butterfield (NC-01) placed a wager on whose team would win in Sunday’s game between the Seattle Seahawks and Carolina Panthers.

The following is a release from the office of Congresswoman Suzan DelBene:

With the 2015 NFC playoffs entering the divisional round this weekend, Reps. Suzan DelBene (WA-01) and G.K. Butterfield (NC-01) placed a wager on whose team would win in Sunday’s game between the Seattle Seahawks and Carolina Panthers.

DelBene is wagering Woodinville’s Redhook beer, while Butterfield has offered Carolina barbeque and slaw.

“Just like in last year’s divisional round, the Seahawks will show the Panthers the power the 12th Man has, especially when it comes to post-season play,” DelBene said. “Cam Newton is having a great season, but Sunday’s game will come down to who has the experience and the best defense. And we all know the Legion of Boom can stop anyone in their tracks.”

“Let’s remember that the Panthers already beat the Seahawks once this season…in Seattle,” Butterfield said. “This time won’t be any different. The Panthers are undefeated at home and will stay that way this Sunday. Skittles and a missed field goal won’t save the Seahawks this time!”

The Seattle Seahawks take on the Carolina Panthers on Sunday at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte at 10:05 a.m.
