For years, they were illegal here.  The first year they made them legal on
the state level, I expected the next morning to go outside and find large
craters in people's yards.  :)  After that year, my city opted to make them
illegal in city limits.  It has not been as bad since... sounds like people
are still having fun without being dangerous.

That first year, folks were supposedly firing the "big" fireworks off of
apartment balconies and other not-so-smart places, which is what lead to
them becoming illegal again locally.
