If you’ve followed Sequim High sports or spent any decent amount of time at a Sequim community event, you likely know — or know about — Myron.

That’s Myron Teterud, the undisputed biggest fan of all things Sequim.

Born in Montana in November 1939, Teterud came to Sequim in May of 1951 and began attending elementary school where the current Sequim Community School is now on Alder Street. His first thoughts of Sequim? “Dead. Nothing to do.”

Teterud became manager for the only sports teams Sequim High had at the time — boys basketball and football. His job? “Anything you can name.”

Teterud briefly left the Olympic Peninsula in 1960 to live in Tacoma and worked at Goodwill, but he still kept an eye on Sequim, watching the Wolves play an occasional non-league or playoff game.

He soon returned to Sequim, working at several restaurants like the Red Ranch Inn and Gwennie’s. And he’s been decked out in purple in gold on the sidelines or the stands at Sequim High football and basketball games, softball and baseball games, track meets and wrestling matches alike.

How deep do his Sequim High loyalties lie? Ask him about rival Port Angeles: “Enemies from way back. Green and white … not my favorite color.”

We caught up with Myron and asked him a few random questions just a few days after his 76th birthday:

Question 42: What’s your best or first memory of/in Sequim?

Teterud: I was surprised; there was nothing here (in 1951). We had nothing here. Just one policeman.

Question 3: At first, did you know how to pronounce Sequim?

Teterud: Yeah. We came out here all the time. My uncle managed the old co-op.

Question 16: What’s your favorite Sequim event?

Teterud: Football games … and baseball. It’s fun and good times. It gets rowdy.

Bonus Question: Where is the farthest you’ve traveled for a Sequim sports event?

Teterud: Washougal (Clark County, near Vancouver, Wa.), on the bus. Yip yap. It’s noisy. We went on a boat to Friday Harbor and to Bellingham for the (football) playoffs.

Question 33: Picard or Kirk or someone else?

Teterud: Picard because he’s different. Kirk is too much of a ding-a-ling.

Question 27: If you could go anywhere in the world tomorrow, where would you go?

Teterud: Jamaica. You have good food and the people are kind.

Question 48: What’s the best advice you’ve been given?

Teterud: Go fly a kite.
