Well those politicians really screwed us again this week but good. One of the top free events that was scheduled for the year as far as attendance goes got cancelled due to government budget sequestration. The Air Force Thunderbirds were scheduled to perform at the Wings over Vermont Air show in Burlington Vt this weekend. It would have been the only appearance for The Thunderbirds in New England for 2013. The whole show has been cancelled because of politics and budgets. Thanks again for the fine job you guys are doing down there in Washington. If you like the Fun Freebies Blog, please like us on our facebook page above. Thanks
