Where are these fireworks coming from?

Anyone?

Seems like St Johns and Underhill (my corner). Really loud here and close enough that I can smell it.

I dunno, but, yeah, WTF??

They SEEM like they are right outside my window... Sounds that way and I can see flashes.

there was an outdoor movie at prospect park tonight..could this be part of it?

No idea. Sure caught me by surprise. I can see them from my front window on Butler Pl. BK Library, perhaps???

what in the blue fuck is going on?

Yeah really, a bit shocking... I LOVE fireworks, but they really came out of nowhere and so loud.. :shock:

Great, I just put on my shoes and then it stopped. No sirens followed. No screams of terror. Any guesses?

they showed jurassic park in prospect park a few years ago and ended with fireworks. if they have done it again, someone needs to tell them it sucks.

yeah i just skated up the hill the fire dudes told me it was for a "movie" they had showing/going on in the park !

and yeah i was like oh shit fools are goin crazy tonight

Today was the fireworks and movie. I just watched the show from my bathroom window.

LOL , The kids were in here crying cuz they were soooo soooo loud! They stopped after they saw the pretty colors.


The movie is probably starting now. I thought it was going to be movie then fireworks , but I guess they changed their minds.

They set them off from Mt. Prospect Park.

Wow! I can't believe the smoke drifted all the way over here.

Wow!!! I'm all the way on Bergen bet. Brooklyn & New York and my neighbor and I heard it all the way up here. I'm glad I don't have a heart condition...at least I didn't before. lol

Damn. I chose exactly the wrong time to put the kids to bed. Scared the crap out of all of us.

Are you sure they weren't gunshots?


:P

OK, you got me. I lied. I wasn't putting on shoes. I was actually putting on the Batman suit, but I couldn't get the belt over my beer gut.

I'm in clinton hill at Clinton and Wilhoughby and I could see and hear the fireworks pretty well from my apartment. It looked like they were launched near GAP, probably on the lawn like they do for New Years.

they launch from Mt. Prospect Park. I can still smell the gun powder in my apt. not kidding.
