BINGO....

Back in the 70's, the small time local vendors like the 'knife sharpener', 'chimney sweep' etc. would still use horse-and-cart to peddle their wares, so there would be humongous piles of horse shit on the roads from time to time. My brothers would stick in an M100, light it and we'd run our asses off; hide under the doorway arches and watch the shit fly past us. Good times.

P.S. No, we never got hit with friendly fire, we were fast little bastards.

Pennsylvania is on the eastern part of the US and more north.

Perhaps PA has had a past marred by tragic pyrotechics consequences???

Well, hopefully you learned something from the experience, otherwise, it'd be a total waste.

naaa why would i learn when clearly im a glutton for punishment?

Its illegal in AZ too porque the threat of brush fires is always high.

Same in California...depends on the area and cities.

Can you buy guns in this place? If so, it seems pretty weird that you can't buy measly fireworks.

Well duh, you might hurt somebody with fireworks...

It's always some damn 5-year old kid every year stuffing a M-90 down his pants that ruins everybody's fun.

People can get by without body parts. What's the big deal?
