Reports Report 2449ahd (Event 2449-2017)

Observer
Name Bud F
Experience Level 4/5
Remarks Iv'e seen many many meteors, I've had them very close, smokers, burners, obvious trails, I know what meteors sound like. I've been buzzed by many forms of aircraft 'on the deck' This moved fluidly, silently, fast but meteor fast (maybe close ones) & there was no smoke trail This fireball occurred during the second set of "the Boxcars" at the Gorgegrass Festival. I'd guess that 13-25% of the audience of 300+ people caught a glimpse of it It was neat! - Bud Flowers
