The Seattle Seahawks won't play the Washington Redskins until Sunday, but playoff football fever has already begun in the form of 99-cent Top Pot Doughnuts offerings. The commemorative Hawks doughnuts feature blue, green and yellow sprinkles atop a white frosting.

The Redmond shop opened at 6 a.m. today and soon sold out of its initial 10-dozen supply, according to employee Taylor Jahnsen. They are expecting another delivery this afternoon, she added. The doughnuts will be available today through Sunday.

"It's been a constant question, 'Do you have the Seahawks doughnuts? Do you have the Seahawks doughnuts?' Jahnsen said of the phone calls they've been receiving. She noted that all Seattle-area Top Pot shops had sold out of the treats this morning.

"It's a mixture of the doughnuts being 99 cents and the excitement and buzz of the Seahawks doing so well this season," Jahnsen said.

Redmond's Top Pot is located at 16095 Cleveland St.
