October 9-14 marks SF's 28th annual Fleet week. This year is the first year when I will actually be in town for the festivities. I'm looking forward to hanging out on my friend Megan's rooftop deck in the Marina and drinking some good ol Miller Lite.
Fleet week is proud to announce that the Navy's Blue Angels will be returning to the skies of San Francisco. Fleet week makes its 28th annual appearance, October 9-14, 2008 -- attracting an estimated one million spectators along the San Francisco waterfront.
The show will be bigger and better this year with the Canadian Snowbirds joining the Blue Angels. The Snowbirds' performance features nine jets showcasing remarkable tactical aviation. Their show is both thrilling and beautiful with more than 50 different formations.
Inaugurated in 1981, this popular annual event brings together U.S. Navy, Marines Corps and Coast Guard forces for a week-long celebration in the water and skies -- highlighted by a two-day air show over the weekend. - MarketWatch
Fleet week always reminds me of the SATC episode where the girls meet a bunch of navy men and party with them. Bring on the men in uniforms!
