The Brief

A once-in-a-lifetime ride on the Goodyear Blimp is up for auction to support an Ohio nonprofit.

The airship, which took its first flight 100 years ago, has been a regular at major sporting events since flying above the 1955 Rose Bowl.

The Goodyear Blimp is celebrating its 100th anniversary this year, and it’s doing so by offering a ride for two on the iconic airship.

According to the Akron, Ohio-based nonprofit Bounce Innovation Hub, the once-in-a-lifetime ride will go to the person who bids the most at the online auction. The auction is being held to benefit the nonprofit, which supports northeast Ohio innovators, entrepreneurs and startups.
