12th Man flag disappears from Space Needle

SEATTLE — The "12th Man" Seahawks flag was raised at the top of Space Needle with much fanfare on Friday. On Monday, that flag was gone.

Space Needle spokesman Dave Mandepat told KIRO 7 Eyewitness News that they took the flag down after Sunday's win in order to prevent it from being shredded by the wind.

Mandepat said on Monday afternoon that staff at the Space Needle was meeting to decide if the flag will go up again on Friday.
