I'm sorry you paid all that money for that effort.

THe loss sucked..they didn't have their skating legs today...when you don't have that..you rarely if ever W. Saw it in the first 3 min of the game..

But the atmosphere..being outside for a big game...still awesome
 
We didn't have one flyover in Gillette for the Patriots this year.

If their home opener was during the day..i bet they would have had one...usually always one first home game..unless they keep winning these rings. But many i love seeing those in action so close. The B2 was my favorite at Gillette

There was some discussion or "controversy" at the beginning of the year regarding the cost of such, so I suspect there were cutbacks..
 
Question: At any point could you actually see the puck....besides on the Jumbotron?

I was in 328 row 14 and yes..you could see the puck and i saw every single goal...it was amazing how much you could still see..i only looked at the jumbo for replays..it was great actually
 
A C130 ?

Wow ... that is an epic thunderous flyover ... loud... low ... and not too fast.

I think they are allowed two a season. I assume Kraft planned the whither classic and spent one of the fly overs knowing he'd have one more available for the Pats. Maybe this means a day time start for the first playoff game???
 
When I was stationed in England (RAF Mildenhall, 100th Comm Squadron) we got an invite from the 352 Special Ops Group commander to go on a training mission on a C-130 Specter. All I can say is that prop-job cargo planes are not supposed to do tree-top level maneuvers through the Scottish highlands at night!

But it was awesome.

If AFC or Div is during day..1 will have a flyover. AFC Champ vs Balt was the HUGE transport plane

C-5! I was sitting in the 300s and WOW

If this is actually a rule I see no reason why the hockey game would count as one?

Grim Reaper's F-15C doing the Mach Loop.......Awesome pilots !!
 
I wonder if the Air Force Reserve can't write them off as training exercises.....pilots need to get their monthly flight hrs logged.......
