Was lighting off some "safe and sane" fireworks (fountains only, no flight, no bang)that are sold in AZ supermarkets, and the last one we lit burned for a half a second and then EXPLODED. Sounded like an M-80. Thankfully no one was hurt, but our ears were ringing! I left the shrapnel (cardboard) in the yard in case the police cruised by to see who was lighting off quarter sticks...just in case. My 11 y/o son pointed out that, "they ARE TNT brand, dad, maybe that's what they used?"
Shan't be buying those again, and if we do fireworks, will make the drive to NM for better quality!
