Just realized: Fleet Week starts Monday. . .

It is reasonable to assume Blue Angels already in town. . .

Fly over?

Too bad we're a week too early for the Blue Angels.

I did this a few years ago. The colors are right, just some custom graphics and this would have made for a sweet flyover for GameDay and the game.

It's up. What a view




Sun rises in the east. I was expecting they would set up with a Bay / Golden Gate view. It will be interesting to see how it looks in the morning.
I'm prretty sure they are burning loads of B roll, including shots of the Golden Gate.


For sure. I am just talking about the view behind the set. Before sunrise it will look great lit up, but I'm thinking later on the camera is going to be facing the rising sun with the Campanile back lit.

So... do we think the early Bart service is gonna be arriving too late? Coming from the city it seems like the only reasonable option



Why not drive? That's what I'm doing. No traffic and free parking next to campus means it's going to be way faster than taking BART
Please check back in and let us know how well this logic ages.

It would not surprise me if there is a flyover.

And THAT would be AWESOME!

Chancellor Lyons was on the phone for this, earlier in the week. He started the first call with, "I'm pretty sure no 'Berkeley' Chancellor has ever called you before. Nevertheless... "

What's the issue? Are you worried that the parking lots are going to fill up at 5 in the morning?

In the past, the Blue Angels arrived into town at the Oakland Airport on the Sunday before the shows. So I suspect we will miss them by one day.

(Looks like they'll be in Reno Oct 5 & 6)

I think they just may, but roll the dice.
I have had a change of plans, but once they added the extra early BART trains, it was my bet that BART was best for me coming from the Salinas area.

I think you're greatly overestimating just how many non-students are going to show up at 5 in the morning for a college football pregame show prior to a 7:30pm game.

A month ago at Michigan, the Michigan fans did a "Ja-red Goff" chant. I hope we can get one going during the broadcast whether or not Jared shows up.

The entire glade is fenced off but there is a large grassy area between the fenced off area and Doe Library. Even if you can't get into the pit area, there are other areas where you will be able to see and hear the action. Porta-potties are everywhere.

Yeah but if the pit opens at 330, arriving at 5 might be too late for a decent spot. Honestly have no idea what to expect

It's probably already too late.

I can hear Rece Davis say, "they were in the streets of Berkeley all night long…!"
And the flyover states will respond, "easy, they have millions of homeless in California!!"

Sounds like some of the burners are freaking out about lack of security, broken barriers, mob-like scene and lack of organization. The drunk carryover to an organized line at 1am doesn't seem like a great transition and wonder how many of the crazies are non cal students as well. How are things looking on the glade?

It's chill, some drunk students and smells very much like weed. The Pit closest to the stage open at 3:30am.

They are calming students down by playing their grandparents' music.
