On October 23, when a sea of S-emblazoned jerseys pack into Climate Pledge Arena to watch the Kraken take the ice, Seattle hockey fans will be at peak joy. Beers will be consumed. Hugs will be had. Tears may even be shed. Pro hockey is here, and with it comes many a prime pre-gaming spot, branded (and brand-adjacent) gear, and new ways for clumsy adults to show their stuff. Here’s everything you need to cheer like a true Seattle Kraken fan.Â
