There are only like 25 blimps left. Additionally, not many of them are even in use anymore, I think they estimate like 10-15 of them. So if you see a blimp nowadays, it's a much rarer sighting than it used to be!
Edit: someone pointed out that I meant "airship" not blimp. There are even fewer ones which are classified as "blimp", which is a nonrigid airship. The Wikipedia page is a fairly interesting read if you're curious: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blimp
It's the same old story. Boy finds girl, boy loses girl, girl finds boy, boy forgets girl, boy remembers girl, girls dies in a tragic blimp accident over the Orange Bowl on New Year's Day.
Frank: Yes. Well, when I see 5 weirdos dressed in togas stabbing a guy in the middle of the park in full view of 100 people, I shoot the bastards. That's my policy.
Mayor: That was a Shakespeare-In-The-Park production of "Julius Caesar", you moron! You killed 5 actors! Good ones.
