Where were you on October 15th, 2009? Were you like Nicole, probably tuned into MTV’s Real World/Road Rules Challenge? Or like Noelle (and the rest of America), glued to the news, holding your breath as a silver, UFO-shaped balloon floated over Colorado with a child supposedly inside? Noelle brings us the story of the Heene family’s bizarre grab for fame that floated straight into infamy.
