Are you sure the pavement hasn't caught fire yet? Yeah, there are so many people with illegal fireworks around here, one got set off right in front of my house last night, those things are loud. Last year, someone on my street was setting them off and it hit a streetlight, and then set another off and caught a whole field on fire, and CONTINUED to set off fireworks!
