Wooo hoo hoo hoo!
The Pyro

The Balloonibouncer is a community-created special taunt for the Pyro.

When activated, the Pyro brings out and rides a spring-mounted Balloonicorn with some voicelines of amusement. Upon canceling the taunt, the Pyro hops off and the Balloonicorn disappears.

The Balloonibouncer was contributed to the Steam Workshop.
