Official 4th of July Thread

[iroc2]

so in a few days millions of Americans will be celebrating our freedom and remembering our nations armed forces and Aweb as they help our country stay free.

since tearing your sister's barbies head off is much too mundane and fills youtube almost daily, many will be blowing things up, helping the ER stay in bussiness, having family parties and/or getting wasted at them, watch the pros launch things that explode, and have a great time.

so, what will you be doing?

for me going ot a family party, play with the little fire crackers, maybe the watered down explosives like m-80's, and if i feel like spending the money, maybe a sparker bomb or 2 (just search it on youtube lol id reccommend it if you havent looked before). if i blow anyhting up it will be done little by little since i live in a residential Illinois neighborhood (fireworks are technically illegal in Illinois) or ill just drive 10 minutes to a friends house in Indiana lol

watching stuff get blown up and neary loosing your hearing can be fun, but most of all.. STAY SAFE EVERYONE we dont need any injured or lost GPF members

if you have somethign epic, dont forget to take a video, and be sure your dog doesnt run towards it at the last second.

Mine is gonny be pretty boring. No bombs or anything. Just little stuff. I won't spend money on good stuff even if I have it. I found some leftovers from last year. That'll keep me enertained for a couple hours lol.

Minnesota sucks for firework laws, so it's always boring in this state for 4th of July. Unless, I go to Wisconsin and buy some fireworks, which I did

[jteske88]

Taking the boat out on the bay. They load a few barges with a couple million dollars worth of fireworks. Flirt with the ladies on the boats around us, get shìtfaced, get the ladies to follow me back for some overnight fireworks,and have my buddies pregnant wifey drive the boat back. Wake up hung over as fµck and wonder who the hell is next to me.

i will be going to the beach with my GF. its become a tradition. we always go to the same spot and almost die every time. seriously every year we say we will not do it again, but when summer time rolls around we want to go back. the spot is a private beach for owners (renters) of nearby cabins, every year all the men on the block spend 100 bucks or so ( not really sure) on fireworks and light them off down by the water. i assume they enjoy cases of beers while they set them up seeing that after 3 consecutive years we havent been able to watch the entire thing without ****ting ourselves.

the first year was the best.. me and the gf were sitting on the sand, she was in between my legs. the show started getting a little scary seeming, luckily this gave me time to put my guard up. as we sat there watching, a fire work shot off heading straight at my girlfriends head, unexploded mind you.. i quickly covered her head and rolled over putting her body under mine. the rocket shot over us and detonated about 20 feet behind us. me and the gf were together only 4 months at that point... major ****ing brownie points. all because of my ninja like reflexes

[iroc2]

ok dont forget to post all your stories later! this will be good lol

[stealthee]

I actually lucked into a 4 day weekend. Tomorrow is my Friday. That being said I will likely be relaxing and doing nothing at all. I work way too much to want to do anything.

a few years back i had a friend who has some left over mortars 4' round ones, we set up a pipe, and lit it off, it went like 200 feet straight up, and fell back to earth, with the fuse still burning, we could see it lol when it was 20 feet from the ground it went off, BOOM!!!!, ITS 3 AM MIND YOU LOL this lady pops her head out the window next door and starts yelling, and my drunken friend goes, sorry mam, i farted. cops were there 10 minutes later and the party was over, good times man.

[JoRoW99]

[Poil336]

backyard fireworks display, f*ck yeah. somehow i got the day off work, so i'll be smoking cigars, drinking if my dad lets me, grilling, and possibly having the girl over. i'll also find a way to line up mortar tubes in the scored 3800 block i have and synchronizing three at a time. ill also be tearing up backroads in my american made V8 firebird with the t-tops off, blaring skynyrd. what better way to celebrate america than being american

[Streetfire gtp]

I dont think we are allowed fireworks in NJ either, gotta go to like PA or something they sent us flyers for fireworks what a total tease you know

[Abrasive]

Had our big show at my place last night. Had a bunch of locals over and family. Nick (Bluegtp91) & my son put on a hell of a show. Had some of the neighbors come outside and start watching and cheering us on. I scared everyone with a few window rattlers a couple times. Horseshoes were thrown, explosives were exploded, beer was consumed, sh!t was talked.... and it was pretty epic.

[Taz Magister]

Went to the lake had a great dinner then went out on pig for a booze cruise sunday night. Had a pretty easy going day. I live out in the country a little bit and every 4th you can see all the towns fire works in 4 different directions. Just be for dark I started running I was planing on running 15 miles so anyway I got to see the fire works as I ran.

On mile 10 I was running along the woods and I saw a critter start running out into the feild towards the chicken coup. I see a lot of diffrent critters on my run and normally a few claps of he hand and a yell or grunt scares them off. So I clapped my hands charged at it arms in air grunting. It turns around runs towards me at first all I'm thinking is thats werid.... then I see its a skunk....

So I take a shortcut through the feild run up to the deck where my parents where watching the fireworks. They asked wth alll that noise was and I explained. Of course my dad was all like how do you know it was a skunk... skunks don't chase people... So then my dad and I go back at to the feild looking like were ready for world war 3. He's got a mag light under the barrel of his gun searching across the feild. He was still telling me it wasn't a skunk and then he go's there it is!!!!

So My father and I celebrated the 4th putting 30 rounds into super skunk... the neighbors probally just thought we shooting fireworks lol
