According to Browns CEO Joe Banner, Griffin's mission will be to "provide the fans with the best possible experience." Griffin's experience includes being the Director of Fan Development for both the Seattle Seahawks and Seattle Sounders FC. Anyone who has watched either team play in their stadium know that those fans always have a heck of a time. Griffin also has some previous ties to the state:
