The Sonics Guy-- Seattle Super Fan Passes On


 I just learned about the passing of Kris Brannon, known as The Sonic Guy, a Super Sonic super fan who dedicated his life to the now departed Seattle NBA team. I met him at a State Democratic Convention in June of 2016 and he posed for this selfie with me.  

Seattle Times Columnist Matt Calkins wrote a beautiful and moving piece about him.  Click here.

    Thank you for this information Mike. We should honor him by getting our team back.

  2. Thank you Mike, sad news indeed. I agree with your first commmenter - Sonics please! Such a loss, but the fact that he was so committed to a team he loved even when they weren't here any longer is inspiring and beautiful. May he rest in peace!
