Granted, our park is located in the lovely Rainier Valley. Most of the people in town view the area south of Safeco and east of I-5 as out of the way as, say Walla Walla or Idaho.Ten years ago, people would be scared to exit their vehicles if they inadvertently ventured into the valley. Lock the doors, roll up the windows, hit the gas, and make a beeline for I-5! Don't stop for the red light!
That was then, and this is the era of light rail. (Remember, though, that dogs can't ride Sound Transit.) Still, the Genesee park does not seem like a hub for celebrities and their dogs.
By comparison, the Regrade (Belltown) off-leash park drew the likes of the Piano Man and his pug a couple years ago. The Seattle Times reported the sighting so it must be true. It figures that the five-time Grammy winner wouldn't own a prosaic pooch like a yellow lab or a border collie.
Gotta give this much to the Piano Man: He didn't give a second thought to sitting on a plastic, dog-park chair.
