Not bad. Apparently the drum-playing monkey was unimpressed though...

Where’s the tree hugging PETA folks to ban the use of captive eagles at football games?

Watching it live in the stands was exhilarating though! It flew loops around the interior right at head height from club level eying the crowd all the way. Pretty impressive-

That’s a good bird.
Captured a small injured owl once (divebomed into the hood of my car) after he knocked himself unconscious.
My dad got him to perch on his finger as he was coming to, and we were lucky the thing was concussed, because as it came to, it almost ripped dad’s finger off squeezing it’s talons.
That Notre Dame fan holding out his arm, and excited, could have had a very different day if that bird wasn’t trained, got scared, or anything like that.
This talons would have pretty much ruined his arm from the elbow down, and there wasn’t a thing he could have done about it.

About that eagle.. My fiancée was worried when it wouldn't come around our side of the stadium. Then it landed on the ND fan and she was convinced it was some sort of sign we'd lose. As I pointed out to her - I think the colors we proudly support played into it. The ND side was largely green and darker earthtone colors - our side was all bright orange, which I think caused that bird some anxiety.
No bird expert, but just my hypothesis, based on the view from my seat.
