A fall tradition has gotten the green light to return to San Francisco.

The U.S. Navy's Blue Angels will be back for Fleet Week from October 9 to October 10, 2021. Next year marks the 75th anniversary of the Blue Angels stunt team. It's also the first time in 35 years since the birds adopted a new jet for the performances, the F/A-18 Super Hornet - way to one up the murder hornet, Navy.

The Blue Angels oddly skipped posting any social media for the 2021 schedule instead directing people to their website.

Let's speculate, shall we?

Things will likely be up in the air with how the coronavirus pandemic will be sorted in the next nine months. If that is the case, it's tough on a major milestone like 75-years to keep the hype train in the station.
