I hate when we have shitty fireworks. 

We had some stuff left over from last year, some were cool. The neighbors we hate came out and started watching us so we did one of my bros friends home made fireworks. It sounded like a bomb and they all fell on there asses.

[exentix]

haha last year me and two of my friends were bored as crap so his parents told us we could light fireworks off at this park we were camped at... well we thought it would be ok cas the town was having their fireworks that same night, we were wrong. we had some big ones too lol, so we started setting them off, about 20 minutes went by with no problems and all the drunks were cheering and clapping  and it was a good time... but we had about 3-4 left and just as my friend went to set them off, a cop pulls in, im like oh crap dont light that... Huh, what? BOOM!... then we get called over by the cop, and of all the officers in town, we happen to get the one we all 3 knew, our assistant wrestling coach... and of course he is being a huge dick. he starts feeding us all this crap about him taking us in and writing a report and what not, but it would be a waste of his time, and of course the whole time this is happening, my friends parents (the ones who told us to set off the fireworks) are in the background howling theyre laughing so dam hard... then after the cop leaves he tells us hes coming back in the morning and it better be clean.. so we start cleaning and we have the 2 or 3 left and some kids try and get us to set them off lol...

That sucks. 2 years ago I think it was. One of our neighbors had amazing fireworks and so did we. It was so cool we were setting them off at the same time.    Then a cop comes and my neighbor nows him. So the cop is like wait 5 minutes and finish the rest. 

I just coudn't believe how loud that home made fire cracker was. It wasn't like a fire cracker, but it wasn't a bomb. it was JUST LOUD!
