Jim is exactly right. That spot was chosen as traffic ALREADY backs up during that rush hour before the I-385/Woodruff Exit, and contains billboard advertising clearly intended to reach that traffic. Once traffic backed up further than normal, the balloon was promptly, and respectfully, removed. As is usually the case, once people saw HP lights, the traffic slowed to a crawl as people slowed to see what’s going on. We were respectful and were not in the roadway or anything like that. We were in an area PROFUSE with billboard advertising and were simply advertising our candidate on that dead end Frontage Rd.
