Some seriously ridiculous stuff
For some reason, people kept coming into my fireworks tent and comparing fireworks to cigarettes, saying something along the line of, "Fireworks, i mean, ugh, they're just like cigarettes. I mean, what i'm trying to say is that you just light it up and then its done. You don't have anything to show for it. I might as well just set fire to this 20 dollar bill and watch it burn."
I would just like to thank all those people for those insightful words of wisdom.
Anyway, we sold some really funny stuff at my tent, like a bright blue fountain named bling-bling that had a xylophone on the front. We actually sold out of that one and i didnt get a presentable picture of it, but i did take some pics of some of the really stupid things that people shelled out their hard earned (or in some cases i suppose, their ill-gotten) cash for.
This is the box for a "Finale Piece" called Talk to the Paw that was really lame. I like the box, though, because it always says "Talk to the Daw."
For some reason, the people who made the ice that we bought everyday felt the need to plaster really bad puns all over the front of it like "Have a n-ICE day" and my favorite, "We only have ICE for you"
I just really don't understand how, in a business that runs almost entirely on names and packaging, a product like "Plane Flying at Night" that has a rabbit leaning against an oversized mushroom and playing a banjo on the front of it could sell.
This was one of our big sellers (yeah right). With a name like Just Dandy, i don't know how we didnt sell out of 'em.
I just really like misprints
Kelly was selling this mat of firecrackers that was made up of 16,000 individual firecrackers. He said it would go off for an hour straight. Why?
What do temp tattoos and fireworks have to do with eachother?
Kelly (the guy who sold "the good stuff" out of his truck) gave my sister and I some sweet illegal fireworks. This is the little mortar set that she got.
For some reason, all the fireworks companies invent little safety mascots to put on the backs of all their assortments. Perhaps they do it solely for my amusement
