Before the UEFA Champions league tie PSV - FC Schalke 04 is kicked off, Jet Balloons will be released in the Eindhoven Philips Stadium. It will be the first time that such a campaign is organized in a Dutch stadium. The idea is that the whole stadium will be tinted red-white just before the first whistle. The Jet Balloons will be used for the first time in Holland. They are special balloons, equipped with a valve. They should be inflated five minutes before the players enter the pitch, so that the entire stadium will be an ocean of red-white colours. The moment the referee leads players unto the pitch, the balloons should be released. They go straight up due to the valve and produce a great sound. If over 30, 000 spectators do so at the same time, the effect could be very special indeed!
