Historically, AM radio hasn't typically been associated with anything cool, but in 1982, KJET 1600 AM decided to change that. Well before alternative music and radio stations dedicated to it were a thing, Seattle's KJET was making it happen and doing it on the AM dial. Billing themselves as a 'modern rock' station, KJET played an eclectic mix of new wave and rock music that otherwise didn't fit into the silos of radio in the early '80s. Despite the station's overwhelming popularity, six years after launching, the station was flipped to an oldies format in preparation for a sale. Needless to say, it was a disaster, but there was no going back, so Seattle would have to wait a few more years until a new FM alternative station launched.

Jay Jacobs was a clothing retailer based in downtown Seattle, Washington, founded in 1941 by its namesake Jay Jacobs (October 13, 1911 – February 15, 2013). It specialized in trendy clothing for teens, mainly targeting girls. Although the company's first 20 years saw the opening of only two more stores, it was largely profitable at its height in the mid-1980s and operated 288 stores in 22 western states by 1993. However, 1992 saw a major about face from success and many of the stores, especially in southern California, were becoming unprofitable and were closed. In an attempt to gain back lost business, the company tried to expand its target audience by going after young adults with career oriented clothing.

Founded in 1971 as the Vancouver Nats of the WCHL, the team moved to Kamloops, British Columbia, to become the Kamloops Chiefs in 1973. In 1977 the team moved to Seattle and was renamed the Seattle Breakers. The Breakers played in the Seattle Center Ice Arena, which had a seating capacity of 4,141 for ice hockey. Through eight seasons, the Breakers finished with a regular season record of 225 wins, 319 losses, 32 ties; and a playoff record of 11 wins and 21 losses, although they twice played in the West Division Finals. After the 1984–85 season, the Breakers were sold and renamed the Thunderbirds.

During the late '80s and early '90s, music lovers with eclectic tastes were more than happy to label themselves as 'losers' via shirts that projected inward, and pre-empted insults likely hurled by mainstream music fans. Radiating outward from the burgeoning Seattle music scene, you could easily run into fellow losers just about anywhere in the world, which only reinforced just how much of a loser you weren't. Or something.  

Built in 1939, in Seattle’s Ballard neighborhood, Totem House was originally opened as the Northwesters’ Arts and Crafts Shop. Located across from the Ballard Locks, the shop sold Native American arts and crafts to the earliest tourists of the Locks, attracted by the indigenous pole style architecture and Nuu-chah-nulth and Haida carved totems out front. In 1948, the authentic Native style building was taken over by a family, who opened up a fish ‘n chips restaurant that quickly became a favorite of locals and tourists alike. For nearly 62 years, visitors to the Ballard Locks would grab take out and cross the street to enjoy lunch at the Locks, but sadly, economic pressures forced the owners to shutter the restaurant in 2010.

If you grew up in the Bothell area of Washington State, you're probably familiar with Bill's Dairy, a 30-acre farm that sat along Interstate 405, at Northeast 160th Street for nearly 60-years. Norwegian immigrant Knut Knutsen started out in 1904 by taking his cow around Seattle's Capitol Hill and milking it door to door, eventually making enough money to buy land for the land in Bothell in 1936. Soon the Knutsens were raising their own cows and goats, bottling their own milk and selling it around the Eastside. Bill's Dairy was among the first dairies in the area to pasteurize milk, eventually serving more than 1,000 customers, including local schools and grocery stores, plus Bill's sold direct to residential customers right from the farm.

If you lived in the greater Seattle area in the mid to late '80s, then you probably remember seeing the occasional TV ad for a rock 'n roll hair salon called Rockutz. With an infectious heavy metal jingle that screamed “Rockutz… look like a staaaarrrrrrr!!!!,” it stuck with you, and if you ever decided that you (or your whole band) needed a new hair metal inspired hair do, then you knew that you needed to make the trip out to Rockutz so that you could look like a star.
