Flyover at UAB game?

Postby Pony ^ » Tue Sep 07, 2010 4:43 pm

Anyone got any information? Last years Navy flyover was incredible. I hope they can put something together for 9/11

Don't know of anything for the UAB game, but I know there will be a flyover at the TCU game (know a guy at Randolph AFB who is putting it together. The TCU flyover will be four T-38IFF jets. It won't happen if the cloud ceiling isn't at least 3000' with 5 miles visibility, though.

We should have a flyover every game. Peruna and the horses can parachute into the stadium.

A bunch of residents lost their marbles and called UP claiming terrorist attacks last year. This despite the university telling people what was going on and it being reported widely in advance. Would be real surprised if that goes down on 9/11.

We should line-up 7 cannons on mockingbird and let them rip every time we score.

Hate to pull flyover snob, but USAF trainers?? Might as well ask SWA to divert over Ford.

Totally agree. Blast the neighbors into joining the game.

That would be cool...those planes are huge compared to a fighter jet. 8)

We've been the nice quiet neighbor for over a decade.

Time to get the big stick and stir the pot.

Forget cannons or howitzers. Those are very cliche and passe. We at SMU can do better. I suggest we set one of these badboys up on the grassy knoll:

Those folks bought/built houses knowing that they were within earshot of a Div. 1 school. S.M.U. was here LONG before those houses were bought/built. Screw the neighbors! MAKE IT LOUD!

I would assume they would be aimed towards that school in Ft Worth. :wink:
