Driving through Norwalk, I got my first site of the blimp heading towards Bethpage. This time next week, I will be on the way home from another great day at a US Open.

I am from the Hartford area.

I decided to take a road trip to Golfsmith in Norwalk. Got sot Addidas shoes - hope they don't suck.

I saw a blimp flying over Madison today. Was the one you saw dark blue? (can't remember what the company logo was)

I think it was the Metlife Blimp. With the bad weather, it was hard to see very well.

I saw a metlife blimp flying around the course last year. Its usually a metlife blimp doing laps for the big tourneys


While the blimp does get great aerial shots of the course, man that drone is annoying to hear both in person AND when watching on TV.

Was up at Bethpage today, didn't see blimp. I did run into 2 players in the mechandise tent buying hats and shirts. First I saw Rocco, not too friendly - had a lot of people with him. Then almost knocked over Angel Cabrera. He was trying on a jacket. Very nice guy, signed an autograph for my 7 yr. old son and gave him a high five.

The blimp was parked down at the approach end of runway 32 at Farmingdale airport this evening. Saw it when we came in.
