Giant Hot Air Beer Bottle Bringing Extra Fizz To Shrinersfest

A giant Select 55 beer bottle will make an appearance at this weekend's Shrinersfest, the worthy successor to the late Thunder on the Ohio. Shrinersfest will feature lots of airshow activities and much more.

This Friday, the giant beer bottle will arrive, June 10-11, as part of its 55-city nationwide tour.  The balloon (168')  is nearly as tall as the Statue of Liberty and takes nearly an hour to inflate.

The balloon will be located on the parking lot at 2nd Street between Vine and Sycamore Streets, (Greyhound Bus Station lot).

Consumers 21 years of age and older can view the full schedule of the Select 55 balloon's tour stops and read dispatches from the tour throughout the summer on Facebook http://www.facebook.com/Select55.  This is the second annual Flight 55 nationwide tour.
