I think it was 2013 vs Idaho LSU had a few F15's fly over. I remember the friday before the game I was in class with a view of the stadium and this one pilot made a few passes shaking everything around us. It was so damn loud. By gametime he flew by a lot slower unfortunately. Dude was hauling arse during practice pulling some seriously low passes

I was there watching it live and I thought the same thing. How did it not hit the damn thing

I've watched it three times and I'm still not clear on what happened there at the end. It looked like they should have crashed into the construction past the end zone. I assume it's real or you wouldn't have posted it, but it sure looks like CGI suddenly disappearing from the screen. Nuts indeed.
It was pretty wild. I was on about the 30 yard line in the lower bowl and for a second thought it was about to take the crane out.

People are always laughing about the Stearman flyover at Davis-Wade, but it's one of over a dozen aircraft owned by MSU, and its pilot was Gen. Doc Foglesong whom was the school president at the time.

Best flyover I've ever seen was before the 2005 LSU vs Bama game in Bryant Denny.
Was the big plane one of the AL National Guard KC-135 tankers out of Birmingham?
I used to have a picture of the Auburn band on the field during pregame that was taken from the boom operators position of a 135 when they did a flyover at JHS.

Best flyover I've ever seen was before the 2005 LSU vs Bama game in Bryant Denny. IIRC, the pilot was sanctioned in some way for flying too low. It was nuts.

I'd like to witness a full throttle SR71 flyover.
Did you know there was one that was faster?
Look up the Lockheed A-12

THIS. I never will forget it. Anyone with incontinence problems had to abandon all hope that day.

I was at Florida Field when this guy buzzed the stadium in a B-25 bomber. He was low as hell and came from the south and you had no idea until he was right on you. Scared the shite out of everyone.

The flyover was amazing. Best pregame ever in Brian Dennehy.
