AeroBalloon is a new attraction at Underground Atlanta. It’s basically a tethered hot air balloon that takes you up 350 feet in the air. Tickets are $15 for adults and $10 for kids under 10. Sounds kind of cheesy but cool enough to check out. Here are some “Fast Facts” from their website.

Sweet, an aeriel view of the homeless for only $15!
I can see this from my window at work and I’ve been trying to figure out what it is all week. I love that it’s branded for a cable company. Are all amusement rides branded now?
“passengers assume any and all risks”
Just like getting Comcast’s tv and internet services.
