✈️ The Blue Angels are already in town — and so is your excuse to be at Bamboo Willie's all day Thursday.
Here's the move for July 16th: Grab your spot on Pensacola Beach for Blue Angels practice day, watch the most breathtaking flying in the world roar right over your head, then walk straight to Bamboo Willie's and let Hired Guns close out one of the best days of the summer at 8 PM. 🎸🌊
Honestly, it doesn't get better than this. F/A-18s screaming over the Gulf in the afternoon and live music on the boardwalk at night. That's a Pensacola Thursday that the rest of the country can only dream about. 🤙💙💛
