Hello and welcome back to FanPost Friday. It’s fun to think of Mariners fandom as a dormant volcano and with the long-running inside joke about Lookout Landing being a volcano blog, well, I’m just going to go with it. After a near-cataclysmic eruption in 2001 that was mysteriously quelled, the volcano of Mariners fandom went eerily dormant for many years. There was a significant aftershock in 2002 and a smaller one in 2003, sure. But, then it got REAL quiet and stayed that way until it rumbled in 2014 and then again in 2016. No one took it too seriously at that point besides a few very dedicated, true blue volcanologists in the region.
