The Big Game is now over and it was an exciting time in South Florida! During all the excitement, Melissa Marrero got the chance to get one of the best views of Hard Rock Stadium as field preparations were underway.

Carnival Cruise Line has a 120-foot blimp that looks like a floating cruise ship. The airship is one of the only five blimps in the U.S.

"This airship came all the way from Long Beach, California, it took about 3 weeks. We're here for the Big Game," said Pilot Terry Dillard.

The blimp took off from North Perry Airport, which is about a mile away from Hard Rock Stadium.

For security reasons, the blimp did not fly over Hard Rock Stadium during Super Sunday. However, the blimp did fly everyday before the Big Game.
