Gore Balloon Flies After All

By Kleinheider Posted on June 20, 2008 at 3:05 pm

Americans for Prosperity have secured an alternate location to launch their “Hot Air” balloon protest after Nashville Parks and Recreation revoked their permit:

Roy Wilson at the Nashville Parks Department must not have liked our earlier post, since he just completely revoked our permit — even though his department’s own rules state that he can’t do that unless we break a law or one of the department’s rules, which we haven’t done and have no intention of doing.  Then he hung up on our legal counsel.

In the meantime, good news to report — we’ve secured a private location for this afternoon’s event.  We’ll be in a field at the corner of Sneed and Vaughn Roads — just about a mile and a half from the original event location.
