Doing his best Russell Wilson, young Seahawks fan yanks loose tooth
Was the Tooth Fairy open over the middle?
While enduring a disheartening first half Sunday as their Seahawks fell behind the Carolina Panthers 31-0, the Devereaux family of Kirkland, Washington, found a way to win by losing. What needed to be lost was 5-year-old Leo's loose tooth. Dad Jim and Mom Laurie came up with solution: Tie a string to the tooth and attach it to a football, then let Leo make like Russell Wilson.
Boom, tooth is gone. Watch below. (If the video doesn't show, log on to Facebook and refresh this page.)
To to add some excitement to a tough first half, Seahawks vs. Panthers, we decided to do a tooth extraction- 12th Man Dentistry, Russell Wilson style.

Mom's commentary: "Best play of the whole game."
Keep in mind, this was before the Seahawks staged a second-half rally that brought them within a touchdown, though they still lost 31-24.
In the end, Leo received a performance bonus for his effort from the Tooth Fairy.
"She left $2 for that one because it was a pretty good stunt," Laurie Devereaux told Today.com. "She was generous. It's all downhill from here."
