That was the best part of the game

I was a little concerned when he held some of the notes near the end of the anthem, but the timing was perfect.

We need more masculine renditions of the anthem like that. Put some sack behind it (so to say lol). I'm AF but I've always preferred -18s for fly-bys, they just sound better.

Good stuff.

First: It was an excellent flyby. Second: If you want a great sounding flyby...bring back the original Rhino...the mighty F-4 Phantom!

I was a youngster deer hunting with the base club. The men were in the woods hunting, and me, another 10 year old and his dog were in back of a pick up parked no more than 20 feet from the active, about 100 yards from the departure point. We even had the orange/white checkerboard flag for access. Two F4's did a formation take off right by us. That was the loudest and most coolest thing I've ever seen. The dog was not too happy.

I'll pass the word to the guys that did the fly-by. They'll appreciate the thumbs up from the crowd.

I heard from a little birdie who was under the bridge and around the bend that MAYBE, just MAYBE - our very own GRUMBLE was dash-1 of that fly-by!
