Sad and lonely blimp . Any way to embed a tweet?

The USGA has released a statement saying the blimp was unaffiliated with the US Open.

Unaffiliated blimps could become the next menace in our skies. Remain vigilant citizens.

Unaffiliated Blimps are the worst, at least you know where the Goodyear Blimp stands philosophically.

You can understand its ideology and motivations, unaffiliated blimps are just blimps for hire, they'll just crash and explode over anyone for any reason.

They're the mercenary terrorists of the blimping community.

A blight upon our times.

Haha - now it's 3rd! I though you meant Locke stole this from someone else (and I just simply couldn't believe it!), but the google result is a link to Calgary Puck. Makes sense now.

When a blimp crashes does it become a limp?

There used to be one in Deer Ridge and this asian couple owned the place. To this day, the most delicious sammich I've ever eaten in my life was made at that place. The guy took almost 10 minutes to make each sub. But he would literally get on the eye level with the sammich to make sure it was perfect. Absolute perfection.

To this day, never had a greater sandwich in my life.

RIP Blimpies

I remember Blimpies, they were pretty good. Submission is still the best sandwich I've ever had though. Is it still around?

As far as I know, not anymore. It was a sad day when I went to Deer Ridge and found the place was gone.

Perhaps if they hadn't stapled that huge advertisement to the side of it, it would have floated better.

Zeppelin or better for me. Certainly nothing less than a dirigible. This was easily foreseeable in my opinion.
