Default Alaska Airlines Rolls Out PDX Timbers 737

What do you all think? Sure looks like the same colors as the Seattle Sounders.

Alaska Airlines rolls out Portland Timbers Boeing 737

OK, we’ve gotten over the fact that Seattle-based Alaska Airlines is sponsoring Portland’s Major League Soccer team, the Timbers.

But, in rolling out its Timbers-themed Boeing 737-700 Friday, did Alaska really have to buy into Portland’s claim on the title “Soccer City, USA”?

After all, the Seattle Sounders set a league record with an average attendance of 36,173 last year. The Timbers’ stadium can only fit 20,000.

I'm sure Alaska would have sponsored the Sounders, but Xbox got there first with the most.

Really? What about the fact that "ALASKA" Airlines is based in Seatle, WASHINGTON?

No hate for Seattle, but some people need to get real. I think the plane looks awesome...growing up in Oregon hasn't made me biased or anything
