I love those tiny green sticks they call 16 rounds (those ones held with a rope)

Way back in school, during the burn fire night, it was all fun till the day someone threw in banger from a school fence and it blew on my leg. The pains and agony made me stop it.

I had a sad one when I threw one into my neighbour's compound and on d day he caught me, he lit different knockouts and place them all around me to know how it feels

I now hate it with passion. Though I buy them for kids around me to have fun with.

We were in my home town house for Christmas and new year. My uncle had set up fireworks to light up the sky on new years Eve at the center of out family compound. The pyrotechnics went smoothly until one firework bent back at a 90 degree angle and headed towards the house. It flew just a few feet past my grandmother and into the kitchen (note the kitchen had 2 gas cylinders in it for Christmas cooking) where is exploded and light up the house like a Christmas tree. Luckily nothing caught fire. Needless to say that was the last time we every saw fireworks in the village again lol

I still remember an incident that happened several years ago, at about '95 or thereabout. We had just moved into our newly completed house in a new neighbourhood, and we were one of the few families living in that area at the time. At Christmas, we had a full house because my cousins and family friends came visiting, so we were grounded and asked not to leave the house.

We went to play in front of our main gate, and started throwing bangers across the street, then some of the dry grasses caught fire and start burning, there were about four very large plots of land directly opposite ours that were overgrown with weeds. Some had uncompleted buildings and a handful of makeshift structures on them. We all watched helplessly as the fire raced through the dry grass and headed for the makeshift houses on the plot. The fire was so thick that you could barely see anything, people came from all over the neighbourhood came to help put out the fire; the crowd and the ensuing commotion made it all look like a riot scene. By the time the fire was brought under control, it had burnt all the grasses in sight and blackened all the uncompleted buildings in its path.

We were so petrified, I tried to cry but couldn't shed any tear. Miraculous, we were not punished for that incident even when far lesser misdemeanours had earned us heavy punishments in the past. I guess my folks were also shaken by the incident. Since that day, till today none of us had touched banger, even the sound of it today scares me.

while i was young, i bought a pack of rocket with report
the type you stick in the ground.

over time, i gathered courage to light it up in my hand then release it.

so one day i lit it and ran off, so the time it takes to burn relative to the gps position of a lady walking into the line of fire got me worried.
and lo. my fear came true.
the rocket flew straight to her neck and boom.

i ran inside and trust that she followed me, i was like no one will believe cos there really wasnt any evidence
that was how she showed the spot on her neck

she reported to an elderly man who liked me (i was so pretty, everyone loved me). he just joked about it and never reported me. grin

98 or 99 not sure , Just bought a new kito sandals , I'm sure most people here know that brand, after kito was treckers , anyways , flaunting my new kito , heading to church or was it school , someone threw a three sound at me , the excitement was too much I thought i'd step on it to fall the thrower's hand .....and I did. Next thing was gbohaaaa , gbolaaaaa , pau , the third sound muffled pau sound felt like hell in my foot , that pain was so much , so I took my brand new sandal off , lo and behold. There was this gaping hole under my bàtà odún , thats what made me cry , not the feet that tore and already swollen grin



Went to church year before the last , flaunting this imported true religion three quarter , kanked it with timbolo and a nice shirt , as usual , there wasn't space in the church , I had to stay outside for the new year's 7 halleluyahs indicating new year ( after drinking like 6 black bullets and lots of McDowell that is grin)

There was frenzy at 23:59 , everybody was lighting 7 sounds ( that long one) Devil just took over those steewpied boys outside , instead of pointing the damn thing upwards , they were pointing in direction of people .

From the corner of my eyes ( sporadic sounds from banger explosion filled the air , thick smoke and smell of burning gas everywhere ) I though I spied a light blazing towards me so I shifted to turn around , I was retuned back to reality when something hot was burning my left thigh less than 2 inches from power house , instinctively I started jumping and dusting my 3/4 lucky for me , the flame dropped and went off gbosaaaaaaaaaaaa. I ran into the church like I was being pursued by evil spirits , on getting in the fully lighted church auditorium , my boxers was showing , my three quarter was burnt , I stayed inside for a couple more minutes

There was this area bros who bought everything new for new year , he wasn't so lucky , the banger tore his clothes , tore his singlet and tore his belly too ! Though it was not deep ,but it was a major wound ! I can't help but imagine what would be my fate now if that explosive head that hit me actually exploded close to my scrotum at the power house ?


Oh and please don't believe it cos I'm not planning on uploading any pictures grin

englishmart:
about 9years, my uncle sent me to get him cigarette. So, I bought it and put it in the same pocket I put the banger.
Unfortunately, I gave him the banger instead of the cigarette. He was so drunk that he didn't even notice the difference. Booom it went. The alcohol cleared from his eyes immediately. Then he was rushed to the hospital


grin angry grin grin. You can lie o !!!!!! I've always imagined stuffs like that too anyways. , good one !

Ok i was 24 den i bought these really expensive ralph lauren shirts n i was wearing my favourite one. Just boucing back from ma girls house with lipstick stains on my lips n shirt wink as i was getting to my house, i saw my mischievious cousins already lighting away the fireworks i told them not to take without letting me come back first(big ass rocket types) i didnt even scold dem. I joined them with too much happiness in my system having in mind what just went down. So one of them planted the biggest rocket into the ground a little to firmly n he lit d stuff. We were just waiting for it to take off n explode in the sky. Lo and behold it didnt it was gonna blow on the ground where it was planted. We all scurried off in every possible direction like sewer rats before the big bang. Luck not being on my side i ran into police men, was chased and caught like a criminal had to tear my shirt to break free. I came back to the house looking like i was chased by a pack of wolves. Ps: i was caught in front of my exes house. Her bro made fun of me like the jerk he normally is
