Balloon Owner: Thom Wright Address: Albuquerque, New Mexico. This balloon is dedicated to the "Zebras" who work the balloon festivals around the world. What is a "Zebra" you may ask.....well.....they dress in black & white stripes (like you know what) and they are in charge of the launch of each balloon....they're the safety patrol and do a very phenominal job of keeping the balloons, pilots and audience safe. Hats off to the Zebras!!!!
