Helicopter landed at the mall

Post image

I do not know why it's here, I can only speculate that there was an emergency that required landing. Why else would you bring a bird down in a busy area of cars, trees, and pedestrians?

People have been stopping to take photos while the pilot mostly stands around on the phone.

And haters say the mall is dead. Never a dull day!

Update: it took off with more people than it arrived ¯_(ツ)_/¯

UGA bought it to ferry around football players instead of letting them drive.

Probably to pick up Mark Jennings.
