So I married this guy’s daughter. She said he liked to light off some Fireworks on the fourth of July. I thought… yeah… whatever… me too… Then I witnessed it. He’s tossing quarter sticks with his hand… walking away from lit shells (the big professional ones that shoot out of huge PVC based in buckets of sand). I was pretty impressed… until I saw his annual finale – which varies but is usually at least 2 giant rolls of Firecrackers strung up the telephone pole in fron of his house. The sound was insane. The whole neighborhood claps at the end. In fact, their whole neighborhood is insane on the fourth. It’s like a warzone. People come to his neighborhood from Chicago just to see the stuff that goes on up and down their street – with the finale of course being Crazy Bill’s telephone pole of fury. Being a pasty geek, rather than getting involved with all that danger, I made a video for him instead. Enjoy.

That reminds me of my town, 680 people live in town, 4th of july looks like world war three, morters streaking into the sky & exploding, bottle rockets zpping in all directions, Hundreds of firecrackers popping everywhere, spinners whizzing into the air trowing colored sparks. It’s a great night. the bear & whiskey flows like water. quite the party.

I think those are 16,000 firecracker rolls – and they run about $50 each. This year we are going for three – with one complete roll mounted to the top for the finale. He just got a new ladder for Father’s Day – he told his wife it was to get to the peak of the roof for Christmas decorations or something (then secretly told me it also just happens to get him to the top of the telephone pole). hehe.
