Back when I was in High School, maybe the summer before senior year, I had just turned 18 and was out celebrating the 4th of July in grand country tradition. I had a couple hundred bucks worth of artillery shells and roman candles, a butane lighter, and, apparently, a fearlessness that can only be attained through inexperience and raging testosterone. It did not take long for the 2 factions of us who were there to turn our tubes from the sky and level them off into each other, all in good fun of course. After the epic 500 gram battle raged for a few minutes, a buddy of mine pulled out 2 fountains appropriately called "Frosty Mug O Beer." Now, the stipulation upon which he purchased these fountains was that I would hold one in each hand and run around with them. Now seemed as good a time as any, and I was about half way through my cigar of choice for the night. And so, with a cardboard container full of gunpowder in each hand and a cigar in mouth, it was time for the bayonet charge.
Definitely one of my favorite Fourths so far. As for the remainder of the shells...
And there you have it. One story of (mainly) stupidity and (vaguely) cigars. Several articles of clothing were very much harmed in the making of this memory.
ETA: Thanks for the contest and all of the participants for sharing their stories.
