| #10 this was no mistake by the responsible party Hmmm. Malice or ignorance. Tough choice given that the demographic in question is 'journalists'. Personally, I'd be fine with Russians jets in the Super Bowl flyover because Democracy! Whiskey! Sexy! |

| #8 Just as good as when the Air Force birthday was recognized by Southern Command with SU-27s, and the State Department used F-18s. |

| #2 Where are the complaints about the cost of this frivolous flyover, clogging up the pristine sky with earth-warming CO2? Or were all the usual complainers at the game, maskless? |
