The NHL Stadium Series game this year is taking place at Falcon Stadium on the Air Force Academy campus, and that can only mean two things: fighter jets and flyovers.
Before the Avalanche and Kings dropped the puck in the latest edition of the outdoor game Saturday night, fans experienced an Air Force tradition like none other with a classic flyover.
The flyover included four jets, with the lead aircraft going vertical while flying over the back side of the stadium.
If you missed it, you can catch the videos below, as Twitter was all over this event.
