No Blimp for the Super Bowl....

[Michael82]

I read in the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle today that there won't be a blimp for the Super Bowl this year. The Goodyear Blimp won’t be allowed near the upcoming Super Bowl. No blimps, banner-tow planes or other aircraft will be allowed within 7 miles of Qualcomm Stadium for Super Bowl Sunday on Jan. 26. Apparently Goodyear did not come to an agreement with the NFL before the No Fly Zone was placed on the area.

is this another precautionary measure against terrorism?i suppose that terrorist will hijack the blimp and crash it into the Super Bowl.

That's a shame. Maybe the NFL could arrange for Wade Phillips to be on the field at half time. He looks a little like a blimp.

Hi folks. I mostly lurk, but I can't believe that no one jumped on this movie reference.

Now THAT would be interesting! Blimps aren't that heavy, so I'm sure no one would be hurt.

I don't know anyone else, but since there's no blimp, I may not even watch the Super Bowl. I mean, what's the point?

What if it was filled with a combination of Wade Phillips and John Butlers fart gas though?
