Djokovic recalled how the guy piloting the hot air balloon was trying to detach and undo this sign that was supposed to be released.
“So there was a panic as the balloon started going down and she was like ‘oh my God’ (as there was a hole in the balloon),” he continued
Djokovic pleaded with his pilot to help him as they were missing an opportunity with the two balloons coming closer to each other.
“And then the thing goes down and I’m reading it slowly because it’s letter up. I’m like what will you marry me. But I’m like its a commercial? Is he crazy at 7:00 am? Why would want to put a commercial out? It’s not a commercial banner and he’s already down on the knee,” Jelena recalled.
