And all I can really say is…these people are fucking crazy. I love Portland.
Here’s a better writeup than what I can muster. Because, you know, I’m just a girl.
I forgot to mention, we were entering PGE Park and they were playing The Shins. And not a radio cut. Some random Shins song. Where else do you go and hear The Shins at a sports stadium? I fricken love this town.
Below is a video of the Timbers beloved mascot, Timber Jim, sawing the log for the last time.
