B-1 + B-2 + B-52 (=55) Flyover Superbowl 55

[Military.com] The B-52, which dates back to the early 1960s, had to keep in line with its B-1B Lancer and B-2 Spirit cousins over Tampa's Raymond James Stadium before the kickoff of Super Bowl LV. The flyover was timed perfectly as singers Jazmine Sullivan and Eric Church hit the final notes of the "Star Spangled Banner" -- thanks to coordinated efforts from the pilots, crew and ground liaisons, and other support aircraft.

On the day of the big game, the three met up ahead of time in the Gulf of Mexico, nearly 100 miles offshore. About 30 minutes prior to the flyover, they were seen flying around just before they moved into tight formation. The bombers received updates from a liaison on the ground who let them know when each event -- presentation of colors, singer H.E.R.'s rendition of "America the Beautiful," and finally, the national anthem -- began and ended so they could adjust their flight.

#1 The NFL have been in bed with DoD for a while. But fewer people notice those things as NFL viewership is dropping.

#2 NFL viewership is dropping just like the bombs coming out of the B-52's belly

#4 I remember Troy Aiken on a hot mic saying that sorts of things wouldn't happen anymore when Harris/Biden were elected. Troy must be so disappointed!

#5 Bobby - that wasn't a hot mic of them complaining, that was a hot mic of them making fun of lefty's, which was edited to omit the context and smear Aikman and Buck. It was a millennial Prognazi who tried to kill their careers with that. Please dont repeat their lies.

#6 Prozi: (PROgressive-naZI, pronounced Pro-tsee or Prot-zee, with a long "o" as in "no" or "vote"). Also "Prognazi". N., Progressive-socialist who espouses censorship, and factless characterization of anyone that opposes them as "white supremacists", "racist", or "Nazi" in order to make them into an object of Prozi hatred, so that the Prozis and their fact-free but emotionally driven mobs (virtual and real) can then more easily supress their target's speech, religion, livelihood, or existence (death wishes/threats).

I recommend this be placed in the Rantburg Stylebook, as it is far more precise/accurate than leftist or liberal.

#9 Re #7, that definition's a bit of a mouthful, and strikes me as just a tad partial. Mother Macadam's Marvelous Molasses Morsels, like. But if you don't mind me selling it under, say, "person of progress who projects their nazism onto political opponents," put me down for ten pounds, please.
