I stopped at a Ruby Tuesday's for a late lunch before heading to the airport and the waitress asked if I'd like to see the launch. I thought she was talking about on the TV over the bar. She informed me that the launch could be seen from their parking lot. About 2 minutes before the launch everyone in the restaurant made their way to the parking lot and we saw this:
