that is old, it happened like 3 years ( I don\'t really know, but long) ago in the city of Enschede, the Netherlands (my country ;))

I believe only 6 people died, but the damage was huge....

You said it. Stupid choice. Unless the homes were built near it due to urban sprawl....

Seen it before, well believe I have.

Something like this happened to me;

I was at my cousins house (Montana), his house is on a giant ranch place and way out in the middle of nowhere. We bought like 500 dollars worth of firecrackers, 100 of it was those big strands of Black Cats, because they were cheap, and we got a shitload. Well we unloaded it into his shed, him being the dumbass he is left the door open. Well we were lighting some last night, and a bottle rocket launched in their.

Nothing was left of his shed.

Haha, spudz. That was pretty funny. Glad to see you two were alright though. Fireworks are fun though but a bunch of morons in Jersey messed it up for all of us.

Banned Im guessing?

Yes, as In Alaska too.

We miss out on alot of things, like trick-or-treating in certain parts of the town. Apparently some sick ****s put razor blades in kids apples, the chomped down and swallowed them. Real messed up.

Fireworks are banned here- Its retarded though. We live in a TEMPERATE RAINFOREST, It is raining about 99% of the time. Everything is sopping wet, nothing will burn. Jesus, but still the firework show they have every year is amazing.

A giant barge pulls through the channel (We are on islands), fireworks just blast through, its amazing. I have yet to see any city top it (Except Seattle).
