The Goodyear Blimp got an awesome view of the Penn State whiteout vs. Auburn

The Goodyear blimp was in Happy Valley for Penn State-Auburn and got some outstanding images to show off

You know it’s a big game anytime the iconic Goodyear blimp is flying around the stadium. Saturday’s matchup between Penn State and Auburn was paid a visit by one of the three Goodyear blimps, and it got some fantastic views of the whiteout in full effect.

Hours before the game, the blimp was flying around the region and took in some gorgeous sights, including a rainbow over Mt. Nittany. Capturing the blimp and a rainbow with Mt. Nittany in the background has to be on a very short list of things to be proud of for anyone who considers themselves a photogrpaher.

The blimp was in position for a terrific view of the sun setting on Happy Valey as kickoff countdowns were winding down.

But of course the money shot is always the overhead shot of Beaver Stadium with a full whiteout in effect. The Goodyear blimp did not disappoint.

The way things are going, the Goodyear blimp might just make an appearance at another Penn State football game this fall. Probably not this coming weekend for Penn State’s home game with Villanova, but it would not be shocking to see the blimp hovering over the skies of a Penn State football game again this season.
