Bottle rocket 'fights' on the beach in Ensenada. usually right after a beer, or two.
Would buy one of the $10. bundles, like 200 bottle rockets strapped together with a big rubber band, fuses and stems all pointing the same way.
Routine was about 50 paces apart, facing each other, bundle under the arm, beer and cig in one hand (to light the bottle rocket) usually while holding the stem with the free hand.
My first or second shot was spot on. Into the bundle of my opponet. All 199 lit at once.
Some of the fussilade went into my bundle and it lit soon after.
Beer for everyone. Lots of paper wadding in everyone's hair, several small burns inside of shirts, one slightly singed cleavage, that required many careful inspections for damage.
It is truly amazing we are all still alive.
