Meet the Seahawks Super Fan

, ,

Here’s a Super Bowl human interest story.


Ever since he was a young boy, Kyle Dreesen has been a devoted fan of his football team, the Seattle Seahawks. His connection to the team runs deep. His mom was a former Seahawks cheerleader in the 1980s.

The passion for the team became more meaningful after he was diagnosed with Grade 4 Astrocytoma in November 2024, which is a form of brain cancer.

During his treatment, his wife, Blair Dreesen, went on social media. She had a very heartfelt request. She hoped her husband’s team would make the Super Bowl. That’s what Kyle wanted, and the dream came true.

Through radiation, chemotherapy, and physical therapy, this season has brought him and his wife joy, especially now that the team is the Super Bowl LX winner.
