Balloon Boy A Hoax?

I believe that it was a hoax for publicity. Hundreds of thousand of dollars were spent chasing the balloon for 70 miles and searching for the boy. I think the father (and the mother if she is involved) should face criminal charges and be ordered to make restitution to the taxpayers if found guilty.

I think I am the only person in the world that didnt see or hear anything about this balloon boy!!!!

I couldn't agree more, to me this was a poorly planned hoax
it just shows how far people are willing to for publicity.

I thought this whole story was pretty lame from the get-go. I mean...sure....the kid is cute and all, but his parents are total asses. I have no doubt in my mind that this was all a hoax.

Oh man, that dad is crazier than I thought! :crazy:

this could be the best thing about this story!
