LOOK, UP IN THE SKY! The Orange, Outback, Rose, Fiesta and
Copper are currently scheduled to have a blimp. Goodyear will be
at the Orange, Fiesta, and Rose; Blockbuster will be at the
Outback; and the Met Life Snoopy Airship will be at the Copper.
According to ABC Sports Producer Jim Ressler, whether or not a
game has a blimp depends on availability of ad time. In many
cases it is a last second decision. Mickey Wittman, Manager of
Airship Programs at Goodyear, says high-profile events such as
the Rose and Super Bowl, have agreements done up to a year in
advance. Goodyear will be in Phoenix in January for Super Bowl
XXX (THE DAILY).
