He had this idea for us to go to a balloon festival.

So we get in the car and we went to this festival and naturally Mike was dying inside.

But the guy, he was just snapping, snapping away, taking a whole bunch of pictures.

And then Mike all of a sudden told him he was feeling real sick, that he really wasn't saying anything.

You know, he wasn't explaining it.

Like there were no physical symptoms, no physical signs, no physical symptoms he was talking about.

He just got kind of nervous and mean.

You know, I just remember he got nervous and mean.

And he told the guy, stop taking pictures.

Like, I'm gone.

Stop taking pictures.

I'm out of here.

And he made up something about his stomach hurting or something.

It really sounded really bogus.

Like, really bogus.

And then I was wondering for days about what was up with him.

But now, here I find the real explanation on Reddit.

He posted it for a whole bunch of strangers and he didn't even tell me about it.

Turns out he'd seen this giant Mylar balloon, probably five, 10 feet wide.

in a giant bunch with some others up in the sky.
