I live in Ohio. They allow only sparklers or small novelties. Ohio is one of the worst states to live in for fireworks.

**Kjz99z28** · 06-25-2007, 08:33 PM

Oklahoma is pretty firework friendly.

**fast enough Z28** · 06-25-2007, 08:42 PM

So is Texas depending where you are.

I live in Ohio. Ohio sucks as far as fireworks go although you can buy them here. You just have to sign a piece of paper saying you're not going to shoot them inside the state.

Like I'm gonna drive to another state to shoot some fireworks... I'll take my chances here.

You can buy almost anything in Missouri.

I grew up in Missouri. I spent a ton of money on bottle rockets as a kid. Those were by far my favorite. Rarely ever used an actual bottle though. We always just threw them, normally at each other and cars.

Yea, Bottle rocket fights are a blast. We've even had firecracker fights. My neighbors just look at us like we were nuts.
I've seen roman candle fights but that's a good way to end up in the hospital.

Liberal states are like that.

CO you can't buy anything good either. everybody would always drive up to wyoming to get the good stuff. it's funny, as soon as you cross the state line there are a shit load of firework stands.......and when you come back across.......there are a shit load of cops looking for your ass haha

Ohio's not really a liberal state. Aside from Toledo and Cincinnati, it's quite conservative.

CT blows for fireworks, but New Hampshire is alright, and not to far away

mortars are sold there, but not the re loadable kind

**Spaz** · 06-26-2007, 05:54 PM

i could give two shits on weather they are illegal... neither do my neighbors.. we have the "loudest" boom competition ever year... instead of 1/4, 1/2, and whole sticks of tnt i may have to go to a small war head this year...

**2MuchFun** · 06-26-2007, 06:02 PM

Oh, I'm not worried about getting fireworks, I usually get them wholesale in Wisconsin from Victory Fireworks.

I'm moving to Florida in a few weeks where they pretty much have no laws against fireworks. I'm for sure gonna be doing some 1.3G fireworks shows in the future. Hell, it's cheaper and much, much better.
