I've been to this show every year for the past 8 years. It does get old sitting on the beach, in the sun, with 500,000 of you're closest neighbors for 10 hours. You have to get there very early to get a good spot, unless you have VIP tickets from one of the sponsors. Then you get to sit on a roped off area of the beach, with a very large tent that has food and drinks. And parking that is only a 10 minute walk away, instead of the usual 30 minute hike over the bridge, while carrying your cooler, beach chairs, umbrella, and whatever else you need to lug with you.
But I love the show and I'll probably do it again. My favorite part is on Saturday night after the first day of the show. There is usually a good concert, followed by a night demonstration of an F-14. The afterburners look really cool at night. Then the fireworks start and last for a half an hour. Grab some dinner from one of the fine establishments on the corner of Sunrise and A1A, and it's a great night.
