Is that a Plane? A Minion?????

Yup, that's right!

If you are in NOLA tomorrow, you won't be seeing things- that will be a MINION in the NOLA skyline!

And it will be there all morning and til about 3 pm!, if the weather stays good!

So look up and say- 'Hey, it's a MINION!' And freak out your co-wokers!

Unfortunately we can't be there to go on the Despicablimp, but we can't wait for for the Universal Pictures release of Despicable Me 2 (check out www.despicable.me for more info on the new movie!) !

The Despicablimp is one of the largest airships in the world at 165-feet long, 55-feet high and 46-feet wide, and is one of only 15 flying today. We think Mr. Gru would be VERY proud of it indeed!

The blimp will travel approximately 20,000 miles, crisscrossing the country three times over the course of its six-month journey in promoting the new film, and will have multiple stops across the continental U.S.  The Despicablimp Minion can be seen over hundreds of events across the U.S., including these upcoming events:

Telemundo’s Billboard Latin Music Awards, Miami, FL – April 25, 2013

The Kentucky Derby, Louisville, KY – May 4, 2013

The Despicable Me 2 World Premiere, Hollywood, CA – June 22, 2013

YOU can track the Despicablimp in real-time via GPS at the Despicablimp Command Center (DCC) to see if there will be a sighting in YOUR area soon! You can also post photos of you with it! You can also post them to Instagram or Flickr , by using #despicablimp, and you can check out some of the great photos of it already taken! There will also be weekly prize giveaways at the DCC, including  a chance to win a trip for four to the Hollywood world premiere of Despicable Me 2 and get the once-in-a-lifetime chance to ride in the blimp!  So be sure to head on over and check it out!
