Super Bowl jets chased object south to near Tucson city limits. Circiling at HIGH SPEEDS.

The night of the super bowl the wife and I heard jets that were flying at FULL MILITARY. I went out doors and saw them, with afterburners on, flying south towards Tucson. Just over, the jets crossed and returned North.

A few seconds later they all went South and out of site beyond Tucson. I stated to wife they must be chasing something,,,, I saw nothing of what they were after because the next door's security lights came on and obscured any detail.

I am making this report after reading the report from Mesa that same night. I am in support of the "Chase," but cannot say I saw any UFO. I do know jets do not fly like THAT, full military over civilian areas without good cause. There is a gunnery range about 60 miles west of Tucson.

There have been odd things in the southern Arizona skies for several weeks. I have reported several but it's my first reports.
