The venue for our esteemed event will be played at T-Mobile Park. Formerly known as Safeco Field, the stadium is home to MLB’s Seattle Mariners. Legends of Mariner fame include Ichiro Suzuki, Ken Griffey Jr., and Felix Hernandez. Fun fact: The M’s have as many championships as the Kraken do (and the Kraken started less than three seasons ago)! On top of that, they’re the only MLB team to never make the World Series!

Bizarrely enough, the M’s home park shares the same corporate naming rights for their venue as the Golden Knights. The German-based company has the second-largest wireless network in the United States and has a stronghold in the western part of America.

As for T-Mobile Park, it’s hosted a big event before! Wrestlemania 19 was held here, with Hulk Hogan, Stone Cold Steve Austin, and the Rock slappin’ meat like the big meaty men they are. Of course, you had beautiful divas such as Torrie Wilson, Trish Stratus, and Stacy Keibler. But the event centered around legacy matches. Also, the last MLB All-Star Game and its festivities were held here, with the National League winning, 3-2.

But what about the reviews? Google Reviews rates this 4.7 stars out of 5 with over 20,000 reviews. There’s also a retractable roof and terrific eateries such as Edgar’s Cantina. Also, both teams will be wearing these jerseys, which will be… nice for one team. It sounds like a great venue to host a Winter Classic!
