Everyone knows Tennessee has the best fireworks. :D

[Ayingel 24]

From what I hear, not many southern states are having fireworks this year. Too dry...

[TheUnknown 39]

This weekend, we remember that our forefathers fought and died for us to have 50% off sales at Old Navy and blow our limbs off with pyrotechnics.

[Drake 53]

Just got back from a great fireworks show up north a bit. We also have Prince William and Kate in Ottawa today, celebrating with us, on their royal tour.

[Pandora 77]

Everyone knows Tennessee has the best fireworks.

Yes we do.

Sadly, I don't think I'll be able to enjoy any this year. Daniel won't be back from OK till late and we just don't have the money to blow this year.

Yes that pun was intentional. ish.

[Princess 35]

My city has the biggest show in the state this year. Usually we're at least competing with Detroit, but they're broke

Happy 4th!

Gotta see some fireworks tonight through the NICU's windows. Unfortunately, those same fireworks made my babies wake up and cry :p

[Drake 53]

Just yell at them to suck it up or they aren't American.

[Princess 35]

My neighbors were lighting up illegal stuff last night just as the muscle relaxers kicked in

[Pandora 77]

Not much in the way of fireworks in our neighborhood this weekend. Apparently money is tight for everyone this year.

[Ayingel 24]

Just got back from my friends...I LAUNCHED A FIREWORK ALL BY MYSELF! Illegally. But awesomely.

Darn those un-patriotic tiny tiny babies! *shakes fist*

My dog enjoyed the fireworks show tonight. He had more fun watching the cop make traffic turn around, I think, but in between cars, he sat in my lap and watched the show. :p

The best fireworks are illegal. Somehow it's more fun that way. Kentucky just changed the law to allow bottle rockets and roman candles. Firecrackers are still illegal though.

[Ayingel 24]

We were dropping firecrackers into buckets of water

And I lit some jumping jacks underneath the annoying guy.

I listened to the fireworks from my bed in the hotel... I had/have the woooorst headache right now.

[Ayingel 24]

I had an awful headache from them last night. But that's what happens when they're being launched just feet in front of you = \

[Jake Durron 23]

Nah I think it was allergies/boss/hotel headache/new jobs... The two new jobs means very little sleep for me.

[Princess 35]

I could swear that some neighbors were trying to blow us up last night

[Pandora 77]

It was fun driving through neighborhoods on my home last night, dodging firecrackers and stuff. I tried pretending my itty bitty car was a tank in a warzone... it wasn't convincing and in the end I was just dodging rednecks, lol.

[Pandora 77]

Prin sent me a video of some fireworks this weekend and I've just got to put this out there....

Why in the world is Martina McBride's "Independenc Day" ALWAYS played during fireworks displays??? It's not about the Fourth of July. It's about a woman killing a drunk and abusive husband by setting their house on fire and an eight-year-old getting taken into custody by the state. Do. Not. Get it.

[James the Defender 7]

My cousin who is my next door neighbor had his own fireworks display Sunday night...illegally. I was amazed my dogs didn't go off more than they did. I was trying to sleep, so it wasn't appreciated.

[Bad furday 57]

My neighbor had a twenty minute intermission between firework shows...which I thought was more than a bit odd :p
