I've always far preferred the formation flyovers with the F-18s, F-16s or the very occasional A-10 flyovers. I think we've had a couple F-15s as well.

But in that shot from the ground straight up and without the shot panning, you get an actual sense of speed and then you get some of the majesty of that crazy damn airplane w/ the fireworks and the engine note...

Just an awesome sight and not a perspective I've had on those before.

I was at the game, and I can confirm that it wasn't deadly quiet. It definitely rumbled the stadium. I did feel the vibrations on the concrete.
