How to land a plane towing a banner

Me and a friend saw one of those planes dragging a banner behind it flying over the beach in Clearwater, FL. We both wondered how that plane can land and not get tangled in its banner. So i found a pilots forum and am posting the question. Thanks in advance for the answers and letting me post!

They release the banner before landing.
