No Fireworks for New Years Eve?

Post by Wizzard419 » Dec Thu 29, 2011 9:28 pm

I'm surprised the local news didn't cover this, but last week there was a worker injury and they have not been able to hold shows since. They are hoping to be back before the weekend though.

The local news reported it here in LA for me but it was only today so, like you, I heard about the reasoning just now. That explains why there weren't any fireworks on Christmas Eve; their explanation was "unforeseen circumstances" which was something I never heard of but now I know the reason.

Hmm, I wonder if they are just now reporting it so people aren't swamping the park and then complaining bitterly if there are no New Year's Eve fireworks? I wonder what a "noise-related" injury would be? Messed up his hearing?? At least it doesn't sound like it was a life-threatening injury so that is good.

It sounds like it wasn't so much their fireworks as it was the equipment since it was related to an air launcher. Either way, not a good day for someone.
