they took a weird line in it feels like. It almost looked like they missed the stadium. Not loud at all either, I wonder if they made flight adjustments after the last one? Glad I got out to see it, even if I froze my butt off. Better view than from inside the stadium

Unlike the last one (which was insanely unreasonably loud) - this one seemed pretty much ok. Personally could do without the flyovers, but a good compromise would be to do them and just have some guidelines about how fast/low flying they can be

I wish I had seen this earlier today! I thought a plane was crashing into my house for a hot sec and then I looked at the clock and saw what time it was and was like “oh! Baseball season just started!!”

This one was significantly less insane than the last one

Seems reasonable to inform people - it's loud and disturbing and annoying. If I had a baby at home who was taking a nap, I'd want to know to expect to not get anything done at 2pm today.

I'm so confused right now - you guessed correctly that I live in a loud city, so don't you also trust me that a plane flyover is occasionally way louder than anything else around this loud enough city? It's not my first flyover - I've never had warning of them before, so let me inform you that the two seconds it took to see this on the subreddit was far more pleasant than hearing a two second long explosion in the air that disrupts my meeting and thinking, "Why is it that the entire metropolitan area needs to know that there's a baseball game happening in downtown?"

Why in the world should I know that it's Openings Day? What even is Openings Day - is it the day of the first game? I know there's something called "pre-season" - is it the first day of pre-season, or is it the first day of the normal season? If there's an event at the stadium that's not a baseball game before the season, is the day of that event the Openings Day? Do I get off work? Is there Closings Day?
