by Why Hot Air Balloon Rides Might Be the Funniest Part of Your Week
Hot air balloon rides are what happen when someone said, “Let’s fly,” and another person said, “Cool, but slower and with wicker.” You wake up at 4 a.m., drive to a field, and climb into a basket with strangers and a man named Rick who swears he’s certified. The flame roars. You rise majestically–until a gust of wind turns your scenic view into a slow-motion panic float over a cow pasture. Someone drops their phone. Rick says, “Oops.” A child yells, “We’re gonna die!” You smile through it. Hot air balloon rides: peaceful, terrifying, and hilariously buoyant.
