@TopherReisner @rosebowlgame @RoseBowlStadium @OU_Athletics @OU_Football @UGAAthletics @FootballUGA Thank you!! They do close the airspace up to a certain altitude as a safety measure (and to keep other aircraft out of the way of the B2). We were above that limit and in constant contact with air traffic control and the authorities, just in case.
