Hello all, new here. Been to the last 2 Roos and will be going next year. I had a great idea for next year. Anyone ever seen Sky Lanterns?
Of course we wouldn't have this much, but I was thinking all Inforooers could launce them at 2:00 am on Friday and Saturday, where ever you are. You can get them on ebay for about 5 bucks each. I am going to get some and probably try them out around New Years. What you guys think?
How big are these things? We made a hot air balloon when I was a kid that was about 4 foot high and I was amazed to find a 'dead' one in our backyard a few weeks ago that was exactly the same design.

Some get pretty big. The smaller, the better for Bonnaroo, cuz I'll be in Centeroo. Be easy to launch the big ones from camp though. I found this size on Ebay. 15" - 22.8" DIA X 40.6" HEIGHT

I used to make a more primitive design as a kid out of a coffee can, a trash bag, and some sterno, pretty cool, but best over water or something, they were a huge traveling fire hazard.

Well these have some kind of gel that burns, when the gel runs out, the fire goes out and they fall back to the ground. I think the paper is fire resistant as well.
