Whoopity-Doo! The cost to us, the taxpayer, for an F-18 stadium flyover is around $80,000-$120,000 per jet...
Think of how many things that money could be better wasted on than a few seconds of genuflecting and chest-beating:
A small crate filled with missiles and other explosives to throw in extra with all the weaponry we're already buying for Israel
A day or so of the Secret Service security detail for any one of Trump's numerous criminal trial appearances
3-to-5 days of a $10M football coach's salary
About 75-100 feet of The Border Wall
Military-themed toys for Christmas presents- GI Joes, toy tanks, toy fighter jets, etc,- for about 10,000-15,000 children
Just to name a few.... But, hey, I'll be there, I will look up and scream "WOOooooo" with everybody else when they pass over!

Well, since the flight hours are already funded and they would be flying them anyway and trying to meet a TOT of +/- 5-10 seconds at low altitude to make sure the bombs they might drop sometime in the future to save your arse arrive on target on time it sounds like exactly the stuff they should be doing??
Bonus the target is TS minutes before kickoff??? shite hot!!!

Inverted puffing P&G smoke would be cooler than shite.
Glad they still fly in inclement weather.

I was stationed at Reese AFB, a pilot training base in 1966 and the T38s. a F5 equivalent were in service then. I wonder if it's still serving today.

So, couldn’t see. Heard them, and they were loud, and it was awesome, but didn’t see a thing.
Kind of eerie tbh.
