Stay tuned for what? I've been watching this crap all day and haven't gotten any work done. Now the parents just need to take turns beating him and hugging him for a few days. Then all will be back to normal (minus the thousands of dollars the state spent on this today). :)

when I first heard about it at work I thought it was a hot air balloon. Sounds to me like the kids decided to "yell fire" and it got out of control.

just a little guy that was afraid his dad would beat him or something cause the balloon got away, and hid from him....

On second thought looks like a publicity stunt,, the Dad's a nutbag...

hopefully the parents get the pay for search and rescue like the teen did. guess it depends on the state.
You would think a clean sweep of the house would be done. story was bogus.

Funny story: I'm on my way to meet a group of 8 friends for our usual wings Thursday at Buffalo Wild Wings. I hear on the radio something about a boy in a balloon in the air in Fort Collins which is near me and where I was meeting friends for lunch. I turn my BB scanner on the local Sheriff's band to pick up the squak on the situation. I text ahead to BWW to tell my buddy to do the same to hear about this crazy situation that's going on. I get to the restaurant a few minutes later and everyone at the table points to the TVs where CNN has live video of it. Crazy stuff. Here's the best part though, the first thing out of my mouth was 'That kid ain't in there. He was effing around and cut the thing loose and then ran inside to hide in the closet because he knew he was in deep stuff.' This was before the balloon ever even touched down. Almost an hour later when we're getting ready to leave the balloon is on the ground and the scanner ap on our BB says there's nobody in it and CNN reported that a couple minutes later. As soon as we found out that he wasn't in there every at the table got quiet and looked at me. I said, see? Then the talk was that someone the next county over called and reported seeing something falling from the balloon so they were afraid the kid bailed. The funny thing is I wasn't even thinking about that because I knew it was a matter of time before they found him safe at home. Weird.
