DB's Picture General Knowledge Quiz

[magicalhands]

OK.... you told me via IM that you meant #4, and I believe you... but in future on questions like these can EVERYONE put a number by their answer. If you don't... you could mean any of the pics for all i know.... though on that one the space needle is a giveaway i know.

Thanks DB.... sorry about not numbering it but I was a bit excited that I knew one of the mascots considering not much of a football mascot fan.. I tend to get very distracted with the tight ends!!!
