I am thoroughly disappointed by my friends who said "97% is enough" and didn't bother making a 2 hour drive to experience actual totality.

Even at "99.9%" you get to see the sun's corona for 0% of your life.

It is quite literally a night and day difference.

99% you’re in daytime. 100% you’re in nighttime.
