Husband Spooked From Popping Balloons

Occurred on February 7, 2023 / Fairmont, West Virginia, USA

Info from Licensor: "After my son's birthday party I put his balloon arch in our garage. My husband forgot and left the garage door open. He was home alone and started to hear the popping. We live far out in the country and often hear gunshots (from hunting) but never that sound so close. He grabbed the first gun he had close by and went outside thinking 'What is going on?'. He called me right after and said I just thought I was getting shot at but it was the balloon arch. So we checked the ring doorbell and it picked it all up. Also, his disappointed 'oh.' He was ready"
