Here in good 'ol Indiana, these little gunpowder filled goodies are as legal as a 17 year old on the corner, and I managed to find a few decent things. :o

also live in Indiana, loaded up on artillery shells and multi-shot "cakes"
 
They damn near barely let us have sparklers where I live. That said....I have some...ahem....extra special goodies for tomorrow night. So does my neighbor, this crazy Mexican guy who's whole family is in their back yard shooting off bottle rockets and roman candles for ANY...and I mean ANY semi-special occasion. "It's St. Patrick's Day and we're Mexican! Woohoo!" *Shoots off bottle rockets* "Hooray for Bastille day!" *fires off roman candles* "Oh, s**t yeah, it's Groundhog Day!" *shoots off sky mortars* There's always a lot of alcohol involved with those people and fireworks, too. Kind of makes me afraid to leave my house on the holidays just so I'm home to man the hose in case they set my property on fire.

crazy mexicans always have the good stuff
 
Going to a wedding tomorrow so I didn't get any fireworks, in fact haven't gotten fireworks in a while, all my friends and I live in apartments so no real place to set them off. Probably a good thing though when we did get fireworks it we were lucky nothing bad happened.

A friend once got a bunch of fireworks for his graduation party and after a few too many drinks we started lighting them off. One guy lit a mortar and accidently knocked it over, the shell flew towards the "audience"

Another time we had a bunch of roman candles and came up with a new game "Wrath of the Firepit" where we'd throw a bunch of Roman Candles into a fire, if you got hit you lost the game. Luckily we were all winners.

I knew some guys in high school who loved to have "Roman Candle Wars" which is pretty much exactly what it sounds like it is. One of them is now missing an eye as a result. No joke. Then again, these are the same dumbasses who used to have "BB Gun Fights", too. The odds were against them.

This thread inspires me to recite the Joe Dirt monologue on fireworks.

"You're gonna stand there... owning a fireworks stand, and tell me you don't have no..."

It kinda was like that, only there was no aiming involved, just throw 4-5 roman candles in the fire and see what happens. First and last time we ever played, since we used up all the roman candles that night and living in Chicago we'd have to go to Indiana to get more and weren't that motivated.
 
"whistling bungholes, no spleen spliters, whisker biscuits, honkey lighters, hoosker doos, hoosker donts, cherry bombs, nipsy daisers, with or without the scooter stick, or one single whistling kitty chaser?"


Fireworks are illegal in NJ. I think I have some stuff in my garage though from when I went to South Carolina years ago.

Kids are lazy about their self-endgangerment these days.

All I have are about...15 packs of Blackcats, 10 grosses of Bottle Rockets and about 20 HUGE 'army' smoke grenades..that last for about 2 minutes.

I use the smoke grenades during Halloween Season too scare people on the street..
 
I have the ones that will blow your hands off...parade grade big boys.
 
Fireworks? Those are for children. I've got rocket launchers ready for tomorrow night.

My area's pretty strict and my dad's a firefighter, so nothing to crazy/deadly.
 
None. It's too dry here, and besides that, they're illegal. Though that doesn't stop people from using them.
 
From my experience cops and firefighters always have the best fireworks.

Well, a lot of firefighters around me get tons of calls about people getting their hands blown off around 4th of July (:hehe:), so my dad probably wouldn't like me setting off some bottle rockets at a picnic. Though that would be awesome...

Like how judges know where to get the best hookers.

:lmao:
