'''Balloon Boos'''<ref>{{cite|author=Loe, Casey|title=''New Super Mario Bros.'' Player's Guide|page=11|date=May 15, 2006|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us|isbn=1-59812-009-3}}</ref> are [[List of enemies|enemies]] in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' They are [[Big Boo]]s with pink cheeks, and their tails resemble balloon knots, akin to their name. They are encountered only in {{world link|4|ghostn|World 4-Ghost House (New Super Mario Bros.)}}, which contains five of them. They appear large at first, but when looked away from, they approach the player while expelling air and shrinking; otherwise, they stop and inflate by inhaling air at a rather slow rate, until they have assumed their massive appearance once more. Balloon Boos continue to chase [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] even when they have reached their minimum size. Balloon Boos can be defeated with a [[Blue Shell]] or a [[Mega Mushroom]].

==Trivia==
*When [[Mega Mario]] (or Mega Luigi) comes into contact with a Balloon Boo, it flies away in a circular motion, similar to a balloon propelling air erratically when it is released.<ref>Eric Fortes (January 16, 2018).
