I have great memories of Crystal Beach as my friend's family had a cottage there and we went every summer. Especially the old amusement park - the Comet lives on at Great Escape in Lake George.

The Comet lives??!! I was just the right age I guess, because that park was the coolest place on the planet to me.

yep - Great Escape resurrected it in the mid 90s. And yes it was probably the coolest place for all WNY kids back in the day. Edited by YoloinOhio

Idiots like JPP and the moron who lit a mortar off the top of his head are the reason why a lot of states ban fireworks or have fireworks restrictions. Anyone that holds a firework in their hand and lights it is asking for trouble. It's not rocket science, put the firework on the ground, light it, then move backwards to a safe distance.

Actually, it is rocket science. But your point is well taken.

LOL!! The creation fireworks itself is a science, so you're right. Every year, we hear of some story where an idiot does something stupid with fireworks and either gets hurt or killed (like lighting mortars off with their head over the mortar).

It's a long swim but a short drive to Crystal Beach by boat. Boy did I love that coaster. Was really glad when it came to Great Escape. Live south of there and it was big news. People love it around here. Some old things never die.

According to shefter, it's not career threatening. I think he just has some nerve damage and nasty burns. His $14mil salary ought to cover those medical bills...

Never understood why people think playing with explosives of any kind is a good idea. Fireworks are fun and cool and all, but !@#$ that, I'm not handling them.

 

I am ok with this. Just don't tell me I can't. :beer:
