(it's good to have conections with someone with a master key)... anyway...
As we are standing there... looking, waiting...here come the jets... I was excited... little problem... the parade route of 50+ years was changed due to the construction of our light rail system... no one must have told the pilots...
From the roof, we see them fly over our CENTRAL AVE... about 10 (+/-) miles from the NEW parade route...  OOOPS
I'm sure there were lots of dissapointed kids on that route...  | Yes, of course I feel bad for those expectant fans of the jets, but that is really funny. LOL.  |
