Omaha Spotlight: The Balloon Brigade’s Card Throwing Challenge

Omaha Spotlight: The Balloon Brigade’s Card Throwing Challenge

September 24, 20251 min read

When it comes to family-friendly entertainment in Omaha, The Balloon Brigade always brings something unique to the stage. Recently, my son Jack and I had a blast performing together, mixing comedy, skill, and a little father–son rivalry.

The Card Throwing Challenge

One of the night’s biggest highlights was our Card Throwing Challenge. With a brave volunteer holding celery in each hand (protected by Crown Royal bags, of course), Jack and I raced to slice through them using only thrown playing cards. The Omaha crowd went wild—cheering, laughing, and holding their breath with every throw. We still can’t quite agree on who actually won… Jack or Dad?

More Than Just a Show

At The Balloon Brigade, we love turning fun stunts into moments of inspiration. Concepts like focus, flow, and confidence aren’t just ideas—they come alive on stage. Watching Jack push through the challenge and share that joy with Omaha families was the best part for me.

Why Omaha Families Love The Balloon Brigade

If you’re searching for things to do in Omaha with kids, The Balloon Brigade is the go-to for live shows, balloon art, and interactive family fun. We don’t just perform—we create memories Omaha families will be talking about long after the event ends.

So, Omaha—what do you think? Who won the Card Throwing Challenge: Jack or Dad?
