SEATTLE — With nearly 1 million people expected in downtown Seattle for the Seahawks Super Bowl victory parade on Wednesday, the Seattle Police Department (SPD) has a message for those planning to drive to the festivities: ‘don’t.’
“DO NOT. I REPEAT, DO NOT DRIVE INTO SEATTLE TOMORROW,” SPD Sergeant Patrick Michaud wrote in a blotter post.
City officials say taking public transportation is the best way to get into town to avoid congestion and parking hassles.

SPD also advises fans to leave their guns at home.
“There have been cases of firearms taken during car prowls. Don’t let someone else enjoy what should be a great time,” SGT. Michaud wrote.
