【西雅图球迷发起众筹购队计划，以“社区共有”挑战亿万富翁收购模式】

西雅图海鹰队球迷阿贝尔·查罗近日发起一项名为“让我们买下海鹰队”的众筹计划，旨在以社区集体持股的形式竞购这支NFL球队。该提议直指职业体育俱乐部普遍被超级富豪垄断的现象，试图探索球队所有权结构的更多可能性。

查罗是创意品牌工作室Extra Good Studio的合伙人，作为海鹰队多年忠实粉丝，他在球队因已故老板保罗·艾伦遗产处置而挂牌出售之际，创建了互动网站“Let’s Buy the Seahawks”。网站设定120亿美元的象征性目标，提议每位球迷平等持股——若西雅图全市居民参与，人均需出资约1.5万美元。

尽管借鉴了绿湾包装工队的社区持股模式，查罗坦言该项目“更像艺术创作而非严肃竞标”。他在采访中表示：“这本质上是对亿万富翁垄断职业体育的温和讽刺，我也想凸显收购这类资产所需的惊人资金量级。”网站目前已有153份意向认购记录，但查罗强调未收集用户真实信息，仅通过邮件订阅更新进展。

与此同时，西雅图科技初创公司Arrived正评估球迷集体持股的可行性，已获得超1.2万份价值1.13亿美元的意向表达。不过业界普遍预测，最终买家仍将是与西雅图渊源深厚的科技巨头，前微软CEO鲍尔默、亚马逊创始人贝索斯均被视为潜在竞购者。

查罗在网站中埋设多项趣味互动：点击太空针塔标志可触发“野兽地震”特效，点击悬浮橄榄球则能模拟踢球手迈尔斯射门。这些设计与其说是商业企划，不如说是他对体育文化归属感的创意表达——“希望引发公众讨论：为什么我们不能探索另一种所有权模式？”

随着球队出售程序推进，这场介于理想与现实之间的众筹实验，已然成为观察职业体育资本生态的独特切片。

西雅图海鹰队的一位球迷发起了一项购买球队的新提议，他认为这支属于社区的宝贵球队应当由全体"第12人"共同拥有，而非仅仅归属于某位超级富豪。

阿贝尔·查罗创建的"让我们买下海鹰队"网站，为那些仍沉浸在上届超级碗失利之痛，或为本周自由球员市场流失关键球员而扼腕的球迷们，提供了一处饶有趣味的消遣空间。作为创意品牌工作室Extra Good Studio驻西雅图的合伙人，这位资深海鹰球迷在保罗·艾伦遗产委员会宣布出售球队后，一直在寻找激发公众对多元化所有权模式兴趣的途径。

尽管查罗坦言此举更多是戏谑而非严肃竞标——即便绿湾包装工队的股东模式颇具吸引力。"直白地说，这算是对亿万富翁的批判，也是对收购如此规模资产所需天文数字的讽刺。"他在周二电话采访中告诉GeekWire，"某种程度上，这正是我想强调的。"

该提案号召球迷们筹集120亿美元竞标资金，这个价格虽非天方夜谭，但可能比海鹰队最终成交价高出数十亿。按人均持股方案，每位参与者将获得平等权益。若西雅图全部780,995位居民参与，人均需出资15,365.02美元。随着华盛顿州、太平洋西北地区乃至更广阔地域的球迷加入，人均成本将持续降低。

截至周二下午，已有153份虚拟股权被认购（包括笔者名下的一份），这使得我的"投资额"达到约7900万美元。虽然收到了电子版"意向认购凭证"，但很遗憾，我实在无力承担这笔巨款。

查罗的童年在新墨西哥州度过，当地没有职业球队可供追随。移居西雅图后，成为海鹰球迷成了他人生中的重要仪式。当他再度迁往洛杉矶南加州大学求学时，恰逢皮特·卡罗尔执教时期。命运巧合的是，当他重返西雅图之际，卡罗尔正好出任海鹰队主教练并率队夺得队史首座超级碗奖杯。

今年，查罗同样兴奋地为海鹰队新任冠军四分卫、南加州大学校友萨姆·达诺德助威。自认并非技术专家的他，去年因感到需要"提升技能"而攻读了华盛顿大学的技术管理MBA学位。

"用当下流行的话说，这个网站本身就是一次氛围编程的大型实验。"查罗如此评价他搭建的海鹰队网站。他尝试了Cursor、Replit、Codex等多种编程工具，并表示接下来将探索Claude Code。球迷若仔细探索网站，还能发现几处隐藏彩蛋：点击太空针塔会触发"野兽地震"特效，点击悬浮橄榄球则可启动贾森·迈尔斯模拟器体验射门。

自微软联合创始人保罗·艾伦的遗产委员会宣布按遗愿出售球队以来，社区所有权构想便持续引发讨论。西雅图科技初创公司Arrived正在评估球迷通过集体持有球队私募股权的意向，目前已收到超过1.2万名球迷总计1.13亿美元的潜在投资意向。

尽管如此，多数球迷和体育观察家预计最终仍将由亿万富翁接盘。与西雅图渊源深厚的潜在买家名单堪称科技界名人录，包括前微软CEO史蒂夫·鲍尔默和亚马逊创始人杰夫·贝索斯，而比尔·盖茨已明确表示无意收购。

查罗并未记录那些表达持股意向球迷的具体信息，他承认这"本质上是个艺术项目"。"如果有人认真考虑，可以订阅更新，我会同步进展。"他说道，"希望这能引发讨论，也许人们会开始思考……'何不尝试？'"

A new proposal to buy the Seattle Seahawks has been launched by a fan of the team who thinks such a community treasure should be owned by all of the 12s rather than one super rich billionaire.
Abel Charrow‘s “Let’s Buy the Seahawks” website is a fun little distraction for any fans still nursing a Super Bowl hangover or lamenting the loss of some key players in this week’s free agency transactions.
Charrow is a Seattle-based partner at Extra Good Studio, a collective of creatives that operates as a branding studio. As a longtime fan of the Seahawks, he was looking for a way to spark some interest in alternative ownership models now that the Paul Allen estate has put the team up for sale.
But Charrow admits the effort is more tongue in cheek than it is a serious bid to become NFL franchise owners, even if he finds the shareholder model of the Green Bay Packers attractive.
“Without being too on the nose, it’s sort of a criticism of billionaires and just how absolutely insane an amount of money it requires to buy something of that size,” Charrow told GeekWire during a phone interview Tuesday. “On some level, that’s what I wanted to highlight.”
The site proposal calls on fans to raise a $12 billion bid, which is not an unrealistic price tag but maybe a few billion more than the Hawks will eventually command. At one share per person, everyone gets an equal stake. If all 780,995 residents of Seattle pitch in, that’s $15,365.02 each. The cost would drop as more fans across Washington state, the Pacific Northwest and beyond contribute.
On Tuesday afternoon, 153 share-Hawks had been spoken for, including one by me. That put my investment at the time at around $79 million. I received a digital “receipt of intent,” but, sorry, I’m not good for that kind of money.
Charrow lived in New Mexico as a kid without a pro sports team to root for. When he moved to Seattle it was a big deal to become a Seahawks fan. And when he moved again to L.A. to attend USC, he was there during the Pete Carroll era. Again he ended up back in Seattle, at the same time Carroll became the Hawks head coach and won the team’s first Super Bowl championship.
This year, Charrow was equally excited cheering on USC alum Sam Darnold, the Seahawks’ newest Super Bowl-winning quarterback.
Charrow doesn’t consider himself a technically proficient person. He got an MBA in technology management from the University of Washington last year because he felt the need to “skill up.”
“In a way, it was a big experiment in vibe coding, to use a popular word these days,” Charrow said of the Hawks site he built. He explored a few different programs including Cursor, Replit, and Codex, and said Claude Code is next.
There are a few easter eggs built into the site if fans bother to click around. Clicking on the Space Needle triggers a “Beast Quake” and clicking on a dangling football launches a Jason Myers simulator that lets fans kick field goals.
The idea of community ownership has been kicked around since the estate of Allen, the late Microsoft co-founder, announced that the team was being sold in accordance with his wishes. Seattle-based tech startup Arrived is gauging fan interest in acting as a collective that would hold a private equity stake in the Seahawks. More than 12,000 fans have shown $113 million worth of potential interest.
Beyond that, most fans and sports prognosticators expect another billionaire to eventually step up. The list of such people who also have ties to Seattle includes a who’s who of tech, including former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer and Amazon founder Jeff Bezos. Bill Gates has said that he’s not interested.
Charrow isn’t keeping track of names or contact information of fans who actually signal their interest in owning a share of the team, admitting that it’s “mostly an art project.”
“If people are serious about it, they can subscribe and I’ll keep them posted on the progress,” he said. “Hopefully it’ll start some conversation and maybe people will get this idea of … ‘why not?'”
