Fan of the Year

Jim Van Alstine | Puyallup, WA


Fan of the Year Experience

2010 “Seahawks” Scratch Ticket 2nd Chance Drawing Winner.

Most people would consider Jim Van Alstine and his girlfriend, Paula Curry, to be a lucky couple. In December, Paula won one of the four $50,000 jackpots from the "Seahawks" Scratch game. Then this week, after claiming their prize at Lottery Headquarters in Olympia, Jim purchased another Scratch ticket as he was leaving and won $100. The couple agrees, though, that the Seahawks “Fan of the Year Experience” is the best prize they have ever won.

“I was yelling and screaming in my home office when Paula came in and asked what [all the noise] was about,” Jim explained. “I won fan of the year!” He claims he wanted this more than anything. In particular, he is most excited about receiving an autographed football and a personalized jersey from the Seahawks.

Jim is also looking forward to playing in the Seahawks alumni golf tournament – Rumble at the Ridge. He plans to play with one of his sons, but admits “he’ll have to learn to play golf again.”

Jim wasn’t able to attend many games this season. But being “a real Seahawks fan,” he bought several "Seahawks" Scratch tickets when the promotion began. “I won a $50 Seahawks gift card a couple of times and bought some Seahawks merchandise for my grandkids,” he recalled.
