The ridiculous soccer games lists # 2 - FC Seattle Storm (Oxymoron Project) ...


The ridiculous soccer games list # 2 - FC Seattle Storm (Oxymoron Project) ...

FC Seattle Storm filled in the outdoor gap in Seattle between Sounders franchises. They "folded" after the 1990 season, but briefly re-appeared in the PCSL a few years later and I caught a couple of those games too.

This is an imperfect list as there are a few omissions that I cannot yet account for. I know I went to more games in 90, for example. Somewhere along the way my Storm game programs got tossed and it vexes me to this day. Also, games were generally played at Memorial Stadium in Seattle from 84-90, with the exception of a few games at Renton HS when the AstroTurf in Memorial caught fire in 86. In 93, the game was at Everett Memorial Stadium. In 94, it was at West Seattle Stadium.

This Peru thing pictured here is a piece of memorabilia that I cannot for the life of me place. I don't remember ever seeing a team from Peru. I don't remember the Sounders or any other local team playing Peru. I vaguely recall it as a gift or something ... any information would be cool ...
