SOFTBALL CLINIC: Today’s the day WSHS players put on an 8:30 am skills clinic to mentor younger players – details here; the second (advanced) session still had some room as of Saturday. Rain or shine! Nino Cantu SW Athletic Complex, upper field (2801 SW Thistle).

SUPER BOWL PARTIES: Here’s our list of 11 West Seattle places to watch the game, from Alki to Morgan Junction, many opening early and advising you to get there early to get a table!

CLOSED ON GAME DAY: On the other hand, it’s a tradition for some local venues to close – or close early – on Super Bowl day. So far we’ve seen Mashiko mention it’s closed today and Cactus mention they’re closing early (2 pm). Anyone else? (Added: Raccolto and GH Pizza and Pasta.)
