Minion Invasion

You have to hand it to those guys at Universal Pictures.  Just as the folks at Disney and Pixar are about to premier Monsters U the people at Universal Pictures a couple weeks later in on the July 4th weekend will launch Dispicable Me 2.  The movie openings being so close together will no doubt cut in to the box office revenue for Monsters U.   If that was not enough they shoved it right in Disney's face, advertising on their home field!!

But, first a little geography lesson for the folks not in the states or familiar with the Anaheim CA area.  Anaheim is where DisneyLand is located.  Anaheim also has a Baseball team the Los Angeles Angels of Anahiem...do get me started on that naming stupidity.  The Stadium is about 1 mile from DisneyLand.  During Major league baseball games there is Aerial coverage provided by a blimp.  In our area the GoodYear blimp(see my blog from January: http://greggvscamera.blogspot.com/2013/01/oh-look-it-is-goodrich-blimp.html) provides the aerial photography. 

Well it seems that the folks at Universal Pictures high jacked the GoodYear blimp.  Unfortunately all I had was my cell phone for this picture.  Left my camera in the hotel room, crazy day.
