All Those Balloons

[Elgin Clock]

For logistics purposes it was pretty cool. It would be better than a million balloons going all over the place to clean up than some confetti.

But, as Pat said, I have to agree that for viewing purposes it was pretty bad..

I saw no high goals from where my team was sitting cause of the balloons.

Bad placement.

Also, All the speakers (on the stage giving speeches, not the sound producing devices) were blocked by the balloons from where I was sitting as well.

Not everything can be taken into account when designing a crowd/production layout, but I'm hoping these very valid concerns will be looked into next year and it will be a little different.
