Default Super Bowl Military Flyover

The sights and sounds of a military flyover are great, but the greatest part is the ‘symbolism’ and to me that always is simply this: FREEDOM!

Driving home from Denver, so we missed the start of the game.

I drove down to Bear Creek Lake Park to attend on of the last launches for NAR Section CRASH. After over 20 years of club launches at this beautiful site nears Red Rocks Amphitheater, the city bureaucrats said “no more”. Unfortunately, much of the Front Range had horrible winds, so it was a bust.

Maybe it’s just me, but the music of the halftime performer just now completed did absolutely, completely zero, zilch-o for me. Never seen him before...don’t even know what his name was. Is this today’s ‘music’?! Wow, what a complete nothing burger.

Great flyover. Weeknd who? Can't believe the sound engineers screwed the pooch that bad with the vocals. Could barely hear him which was probably a good thing.

On the bright side, we won $250 with that 3rd quarter score!

Halftime music act was a typical dud.

On a positive note, his mic volume was so low that I didn’t hear him for maybe the first minute. By then I had tuned out the show and gone back to snacking and drinking. Never did find out who he was, nor do I really care.

I don't care either.
The vast majority of bands/acts that didn't exist prior to 1990 REALLY STINK.
