Runaway Budweiser blimp floats over New Brunswick
Toronto Sun ^ | April 28, 2014

Posted on 04/28/2014 3:21:24 PM PDT by Squawk 8888

A Budweiser blimp in the shape of a hockey goal light is on the loose over New Brunswick.

The 70-foot-long blimp broke free from its tether at a Saint John ball hockey tournament on Saturday, the Transportation Safety Board reports.

Still moving northeast at a speed of six knots and up to 5,000 feet above ground, the beer blimp is expected to safety descend near Sussex, N.B., though it's not clear when.

I rolled on the floor at this black humor. But no one, NO ONE in the room understood it until I explained it.

They were all young. I am not.

Good one.

F-35? Super Hornet? Nah.

Harper settled for SuperBud.

Price? Pocket change, $2B each.
