Seahawks fans react to Russell Wilson getting booed at Storm game
WNBA legend Sue Bird is calling it a career, having played nearly 20 years, making 13 All-Star teams and winning four championships with the Seattle Storm. Bird played her last game yesterday at Climate Pledge Arena. She goes out as the greatest athlete in Seattle history and a lot of people gave her shoutouts on social media as well as a video tribute during the game, including some Seahawks.

One of the well-known athletes who shared a message for Bird was former Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson. Apparently when his image came on-screen at the game, he got booed by the fans in attendance. Here’s how Seattle fans are reacting.
They just booed Russell Wilson inside of Climate Pledge 😂

My favorite part at @S10Bird's last game was when they played a pre-recorded video message from @DangeRussWilson and 18,100 people booed that 🤡

Good and I hope it’s foreshadowing for things to come on MNF. @DangeRussWilson is a liar and fraud because of the way he never took ownership for the teams struggles. He not elite and his legacy will never be that of Tom Brady. Ever. pic.twitter.com/LHApaY4Nj3

Wow. @DangeRussWilson was booed at @ClimateArena when he appeared in the Sue Bird tribute video. Is this a sign of week 1??

Anyone who boo's Russ is a fraud Seahawk's fan. I don't care. Franchises sell their soul to win a championship, ever! Give @DangeRussWilson a standing ovation. You don't have to root for Bronco's, but don't ever boo that man. Ask #childrenshospital.

Wilson’s Broncos will visit the Seahawks in Week 1 on Monday Night Football. It will be interesting to see what the reaction is at Lumen Field. Odds are no matter how it goes most Seattle fans will be missing Wilson a great deal by midseason.
