Now if only they had a life size cutout of McLean Stevenson as Col. Blake sitting on the toilet after the outhouse blew up with the caption “It just went boom.” that had been revealed by the blast.

I have always to earn enough “mad money” to afford a fully-loaded fireworks stand. One Roman candle. And a pile of sandbags tall enough to duck behind.

Then again, flying a drone and camera right into the middle of a city’s anti-aircraft shells (er, fireworks display) would be kind of cool too.

Ocean City blew their’s up too? (Thought it was San Diego that blew up 30 minutes of their fireworks in 30 seconds.)

Harry Morgan had his job cut out for him when he took Stevenson’s place.

I was going to say that this proves math is racist.

When I lived in Memphis as a kid, we used to have to cross the bridge into West Memphis, Arkansas to get the kitty chasers and the whistlin’ bungholes.

Is this how they’ll justify banning fireworks?

Geez.

Isn’t this the third or fourth fireworks stand/shop explosion, we’ve seen/read about, this year?

This was a year ago I believe. Look at the comments on screwtube.

Fireworks are fun and most people enjoy them, but they can be quite dangerous when large quantities are present.
