Seahawks Desecrate 49ers’ Locker Room With Cigar Smoke After Winning Super Bowl

After knocking the 49ers out of the playoffs, the Seattle Seahawks rubbed it in even harder after winning the Super Bowl Sunday night on the Niners' home field, hotboxing the 49ers locker room with the awful smell of cigars.

Even though the Super Bowl is always played on a neutral field, there is still a designated home team and away team, for coin-flip and uniform choice purposes. The 49ers’ NFC West rival Seattle Seahawks were considered the home team, and because of that, they used the Niners’ locker room for Sunday night's Super Bowl.

And after they won the Super Bowl 29-13 on the 49ers’ home field, the Seahawks were hardly gracious guests. As seen in the video below, a number of Seahawks blazed up and smoked cigars in the 49ers locker room, a further insult to their division foe 49ers.

“We love this field. We had a good year on this field,” Seahawks safety Julian Love told the Bay Area News Group. “Four weeks ago, we had cigars in this stadium. We didn’t have to travel too far and were familiar with the surroundings so we felt good today.”

“It’s Lumen South today,” Love also said. “The 12s showed up in full force. Super Bowl is crazy so I appreciate the people that spent their hard-earned money to attend.”

This “Lumen South” reference is a play on how the 49ers refer to the LA Rams’ SoFi Stadium as “Levi’s South.” That seems justified, though, because so many 49ers fans typically pack the Rams’ stadium that they outnumber actual Rams fans. But the 49ers have never had that problem with Seahawks fans taking over Levi’s.

But still, this Seattle team has won nine of their last 14 games at Levi’s Stadium.

It was not the first time that the Seattle Seahawks smoked cigars in Levi's Stadium. As the Bay Area News Group reminds us, “Seattle, of course, broke out victory cigars in Levi’s Stadium’s other locker room, in the northwest corner, after their 13-3 win on January 3.”
