MOBILE, Ala. (WALA) - Uncle Henry with 95 KSJ and iHeartMedia joined us in the studio with a look at this weekend’s rundown!
RED, WHITE AND BLUES WEEK: PENSACOLA BEACH BLUE ANGELS AIR SHOW - Wed 7:30am Breakfast Show; Thurs 2pm practice; Fri 12 noon Dress Rehearsal; Sat 12 noon, Pensacola Beach Air Show; Casino Beach, Pensacola Beach. Kicking off the air show week is “Breakfast with the Blues,” on Wednesday, July 10, at approximately 7:30 a.m. when the Blue Angels arrive and circle overhead to mark the show’s coordinates and center points along Pensacola Beach. On Thursday, July 11, at 2 p.m., the Blue Angels hold a full practice show over Pensacola Beach. Friday, July 12, is the Pensacola Beach Air Show dress rehearsal where flight demonstrations and civilian aerobatic performances begin at approximately noon, with the Blue Angels overhead at 2 p.m. Saturday, July 13, marks the official Pensacola Beach Air Show, and follows exactly Friday’s dress rehearsal schedule.
Parking available at Casino Beach (which fills up early), as well as Park West and Park East, with free trolley service. Bring chairs, coolers, sunscreen.
BLUE MARLIN GRAND CHAMPIONSHIP - Fri/Sat, weigh-ins at 5pm, Main St/Marlin Circle, The Wharf, Orange Beach. The Greatest Show in Sportfishing is unlike any other fishing tournament with huge fish and even bigger purses. It is the final leg of the Gulf Coast Triple Crown Series. Amidst all the action, a deeper reason is top priority. The BMGC has raised over $200,000 for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Come early to enjoy industry-related vendors and try your hand at the St. Jude Fighting Chair Challenge — a real sportfishing fighting chair that is similar to “tug-o-war” against a friend while raising money for the kids at St. Jude.
