IN BOX: Big July 4 fireworks show cancelled but @Macys will stage "high-elevation unannounced fireworks displays from select locations across every borough" from 6/29-7/4 so "New Yorkers to experience fireworks without creating crowds." Each will be 5-min.

Can't say I don't appreciate the show, with the national anthem playing in the background.

+1. Seems like everyone took it upon themselves to make up for the cancelled public display. I've never seen it so crazy before.

Woke the baby and now no chances of her falling back asleep with these insane constant noises. I live on a residential street and can watch my neighbors doing them right on their front porch. Besides for the annoying noise, I assume its a huge fire hazard.

I think they saved their stimulus checks to buy fireworks.

I think this might be what a warzone sounds like.

Surrounding neighborhoods competing.

Where do they get the money for these things?

I drove by a public school parking lot and the 50 or so people shooting there didn't look like the kind you would expect to be high income.
