I just came back from watching them. They were pretty cool, no pictures though. :(
I doubt anyone that lives outside of Florida, California or Washington will know what these are. Especially you New Yorkers.
The Blue Angels’ mission is to enhance Navy and Marine Corps recruiting efforts and to represent the naval service to the United States, its elected leadership and foreign nations. The Blue Angels serve as positive role models and goodwill ambassadors for the U. S. Navy and Marine Corps.
A Blue Angels flight demonstration exhibits choreographed refinements of skills possessed by all naval aviators. It includes the graceful aerobatic maneuvers of the four-plane Diamond Formation, in concert with the fast-paced, high-performance maneuvers of its two Solo Pilots. Finally, the team illustrates the pinnacle of precision flying, performing maneuvers locked as a unit in the renowned, six-jet Delta Formation.

I have heard about them, but I have never actually watched one of their performances.

I was going to go to the same show were one of them crashed and died recently. Now I regret not going.

They've been in Ft. Smith, Arkansas before. I haven't seen them since I was like 6.
