I was at a high school football game a week ago and the local news
helicopter came to watch the game. After landing and filming some
footage, it took off and buzzed the stadium in a pretty high speed bank
of about 30 to 40 degrees, maybe 150 feet up.

So I thought all sporting events were tfrs.
Without looking it up, I believe the wording is "major sporting event".
Don't think a high school football game qualifies.



And you call yourself a Texan!


No, I believe I never called myself a Texan. :-) Only football I watch is
Big Ten. Sorry, but football in Texas is severely overrated and most
people need to get a life.



OK...ok... You live in Texas. By the way, I'm about 30 miles from DFW
airport.

And I agree, *any* football is over rated. I'm just not a football fan. But,
I am in a very small minority.
