Damn fine idea!

Yep, I started umpiring using a balloon and to be quite honest with you, I believe it is a better piece of equipment that what is used today. An umpire does not lose any mobility and in the slot, still has full view of the plate and strike zone.

I think the lack of style is the only reason for not using it.
