‘Balloon Boy’ Falcon Heene’s father Richard Heene is planning to make a big announcement at a press conference outside his home on Saturday (October 17). Richard is expected to either deny the hoax or finally admit it while a police investigation is still being conducted.

“I’m going to have a press conference out here at, let’s say, 10 a.m.” he told Denver TV station KUSA before dawn Saturday. “I’d like to speak everybody about a few things. Okay? So, it’s a big announcement.”

UPDATED: Richard came out of the house. “News networks interrupt programming to air “major announcement” from balloon boy dad, only to tell reporters to put questions in a box”, according to Breaking News. Balloon Boy’s daddy, who is clearly playing the media, just said, “Absolutely no hoax, put your questions in the box.”
