Our first flyover ever...yay! I've never seen one in a stadium before so I'm really excited. I also think it's pretty cool that Capt. Kenneth R. Whitesell, an ODU grad (1993), will be flying one of the two F-14s! He'll be honored later at the game when he returns to the stadium...not in a jet fighter lol.

It would be way cooler is he returned to the stadium in a fighter jet.....landed in the parking lot with a Harrier maybe? Bad ass.

We probably are, but the end results will probably be the same. To expensive, to much to do in the market to support football (GMCC) or not a good sports town/everybody like UVA (VCCC). And the big one, it will take money away from other sports and not generate a profit (both).

Short-sightedness is the death of progress. Thank God we got that lasik surgery and cured ours.

Flyovers are cool. I was at the Ravens-Broncos game last weekend and 3 A-10 warthogs flew over. So cool.

At the Towson-Navy game 2 F-14s did a flyover.


A couple eyars ago a Stealth bomber did a flyover at Preakness. It flew over my house on its way to Pimlico. That thing is spooky. You don't hear it until its past over.

Damn, I didn't want to do it buy I guess I'll have to.
Former Old Dominion Monarchs Jay Harris (ESPN Anchor) and Ben Bailey (stand up comedian and host of "Cash Cab") are back on campus this week for homecoming. Ben Bailey is doing a free show tonight in the Constant Center (our basketball arena).
