Soar With An Eagle Over A Football Stadium And Be Awed

Soar With An Eagle Over A Football Stadium And Be Awed

This view sure beats a luxury box.

A bald eagle equipped with a GoPro camera soared around Houston's NRG Stadium before the Texans-Bengals game Sunday, providing stunning footage of the scene below.

Challenger, a 25-year-old male eagle who was raised by humans after he was blown from his nest at 5 weeks, performs at stadiums and schools around the country as a "free-flying educational ambassador for his species" according to the American Eagle Foundation.

With a large American flag unfurled on the field, Challenger made his grand fly-around during the national anthem on "Salute to Service" day.

It doesn't get much more patriotic than that.
