I heard the fireworks were shot from a different location than previous years and they didn't make it over the tree line. It's was a miscalculation, nothing malicious. I find it discouraging to see such hostility on these forums. Making a statement such as gmc2006 did such as a "a middle finger up!" at the organizers is distasteful and rude.
@imotivatefitness: This would have been solved by doing a couple of test shots at any point before the festival today. Â This seems like it would be standard procedure if you're changing a routine that has been in place for years. Â It's a huge mistake considering how big of a community event this is. Â People traveled from out of town, planned their entire day around this, planned their work schedules around this (not everyone gets the 4th off), whole families were there with small children who are a handful even when everything is going right. Â It communicates to the attendees that they just don't care about them.And if you want to be snide and say we were free to leave at any time, let me remind you that we are also free to voice our opinions about how we feel.
