The amount and number shot off here was far beyond what usually happens on the 4th, too. They were going off until around 1 a.m. and it sounded like a war zone. They did an aerial view of Denver also and it looked just like L.A., a big FU to local authorities who canceled virtually all commercial fireworks displays due to covid and extreme drought.

Due to the lockdown, people wanted to get out and DO something. I actually had no problem with it (it rained hard a few hours before dusk) as I didn't have to worry about somebody's fireworks starting a fire.

What was surprising was that on the evening of the 5th there were few being shot off. They blew through all of them on the 4th, which doesn't usually happen.
