How much do yall spend on fireworks?

How much ammo..you dump last nite..then.. brah
Lol none. It is strange how we take to these traditions and foundations. 4 of July to me is like the other holidays. Another day of struggle. And right now it is almost in a stand still trying to move any kind of grass roots business up to comfort. Hard thing is getting the supplies you need.
 
Zero, the past few years. I moved back to Indiana last year. Nice old school neighborhood. Sat out on the deck, sipped on some libations, and watched others blow up shit for damn near 3 hours.
 
Display mortar shells, 3, 4 and 6 inch.

Also some awesome 1.3G display cakes.

I am a pyro technician. :cool:

I also lied last night. I spent more than

double what I said but overall, I spent

zero of my own money. I'm not going to

go into it so dont ask. :rolleyes:

one could stand to make nice profit on mortars here in L.A. saw a guy pull up with a pickup truck full of cakes and mortars and sold out in 20 minutes. Had at least 100 varieties.
 
Fireworks store?....

Ha ha ha ha ha ha... you're funny!

I spend a couple grand on 1.3G display

level fireworks. The shit I buy, they don't

sell at fireworks stores.

from where?

hit my dm if have to.
 
I grew up lightning fireworks as a child.

they are illegal in Chicago, but Indiana

is like 10 minutes from the east side of

Chicago where I'm from. Last night I bought

nothing. Couldn't find what I wanted in

Oakland. I really only like 500g cakes, m80

Roman candles, m80 cakes(thunder kings)

they have the 25 and 100 shot, and 5"

morter shells. That super 3 minute cake

posted is crazy though!
 
Zero, because I’m not 8 fucking years old.
My dumbass 35 year old neighbor has been setting off M80's since the beginning of June. Had to call the cops on that dumb fuck. GROW UP!!!!! Are you that fascinated with something that goes BOOM and disturbs and disrespects all your neighbors???!!! What a idiot!!!!!

I was hoping he blew his damn hand off!
 
$0 white folk be calling the cops too much. But this year they were out there putting on one hell of a fireworks show.


Ask me again next year.
 
I don't celebrate the 4th.
I don't either. I'm still trying to figure out what black people in this country have to celebrate. Every year black people spend thousands on fireworks. This is not our nation. Just one we were deposited in. A nation where we're still fighting for equality. So again I ask what are we celebrating?

Mf just popping fireworks dude. Black folks dont celebrate no holidays, people just want to get together and drank and eat.

Your response has nothing to do with my question? You mad? Spent a couple of hundred yourself did ya? Seems my question struck a nerve.
 
350 the first tile we mined to Texas because there illegal in Pa. but since the first time I spend 150 no more

Ya'll old dudes more sensitive than the youngins. I just responded man, your post didnt strike me no kind of way at all. But if I did spend a few hundred, that means I had it to spend.
 
Thank you for the info, you learn something new everyday. I had no idea what a "Display Cake" was.






That's a nice cake. The Triplex 600 shot is a

$500.00 cake. They can retail for almost twice

that. Fireworks stores have cakes

but they don't have cakes like that. By

comparison, the fireworks store cakes are

like comparing paper airplanes to 747s.

There is no comparison.

We do this shit every year for decades. :cool:

$0 - I never got the appeal, even as a jit.

Unless it's like the big ass joints, don't even light them muthafuckas.

You niggas out here with the goddamn fizzle pop ass joints with the little ass stick til like 3 in the morning, get the fuck on, man.

I feel like if you gone do fireworks, like you just GOT to do the shit, get the grade A joints. Don't play yourself.

And I would treat the shit like a kickback, like you hit up the whole neighborhood, door to door, like "aye, we bout to do this big ass firework display for the kids, do you wanna put in on it? We gone have it here. Candy lady gone be out there selling snacks and drinks, Ice cream man gone have the truck there, music gone be playing while we setting it up. We popping everything at 9:30 then we going home, ain't no more fireworks after that."

And then that way, at least everybody will have a heads up.

He is a longtime friend of mine. He is licensed

to buy and display some of the baddest shit

available in the world. When he does his

display on the forth, he launches 24 inch

mortars that costs $1,000.00 a piece and he

shoots dozens of them! When they come out

of the tube, the fucking ground shakes

and we are a few hundred feet away! :yes:

I disagree. This IS our nation, we’re just too passive and mistrusting of each other to realize it and act accordingly.
