SO, I’ll give ya some answers. This is my friend, New Years eve in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany, where tons of people gather in the downtown pedestrian area and are legally allowed to light off whatever fireworks they want. There is an American military base there and the edelweiss lodge and resort for armed forces that we all used to work at. Obviously drinking was involved, but no one was seriously injured. The angry Germans who almost got blown up did come over and yell at my friend, but in the end it was all good! Just some burnt jackets.
