It鈥檚 time for Seafair, a celebration of everything boating and airshows. Organizers said this year鈥檚 festival will feature more events, but one thing remains the same: the Blue Angels.

This year, the Blue Angels were met with more opposition than usual, as a woman is suing for the death of her cat, and another group targeted the Blue Angels with a “Say No To Blue Angels” billboard.

Seafair CEO Emily Cantrell acknowledged the complaints but also noted positive feedback, affirming that the show will continue as planned, according to .

“Seafair CEO Emily Cantrell responded to the Blue Angels protest. Is it going to stop the Angels? Heck no!” 成人X站 host Jake Skorheim said on “The Jake and Spike Show.”

Woman suing Blue Angels over cat’s death

Lauren Ann Lombardi claimed the Blue Angels鈥 aerial performances over Seattle in 2023 and 2024 caused intense panic attacks in her elderly cat. She said the noise and stress led to a dangerously elevated heart rate and severe distress, ultimately resulting in the cat being euthanized.

“We had the ‘cat lady’ on, her name is Lauren,” Jake said. “She partially blames the Blue Angels for her cat鈥檚 death. She said her cat had already been going through a tough time with serious health issues, including heart problems.”

However, Jake is thrilled the Blue Angels will still be performing.

“I’m very excited that the Blue Angels are back in town,” Jake said.
