A Massive “Drone Show” is coming to Illinois this Weekend
300 plus drones will take to the skies in the Land of Lincoln this weekend to put on a show. What exactly is it for? And do these drone shows make you concerned at all?
According to NBC Chicago, there will be a massive drone show at Navy Pier on July 15th, aka this Saturday night, all of this is happening to celebrate Navy Pier's Birthday. In an article NBC Chicago says...
"Navy Pier turns 107 this year, and it plans to celebrate in style Saturday with a first-ever drone display ahead of its iconic weekly fireworks show. The drone light show will illuminate the lakefront at about 9:45 p.m. on July 15...The free show will precede its regularly scheduled fireworks display, taking place at 10 p.m...Blue Bunny and Halo Top, sponsors of the show, will host a free ice cream social from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m."

Freaky, cool, and kinda nerve racking right??? Am I the only person who finds this slightly concerning? First off, think of the poor birds that are dealing with these drones...Second, drones are 10000% going to be the things that the government is going to use to control us right? Think about how they can program to do these drones to do anything they want, if they can make the Statue of Liberty then they can certainly terrorize us from above right? Maybe I am overreacting...regardless the free ice cream at Navy Pier this weekend sounds nice!
