We gather at a friends house which about 45 people will show up and the good part is we can walk to his house. We will have ribs, hot dogs, hamburgers, and all the other stuff that goes with them. We will drink plenty of beer and then light off fireworks. It become a tradition and everyone in the area will meet out front and about 5 other guys will wheel down some pretty good fireworks. I bet we set of around $3,000 worth of fireworks with everyone chipping in a few to light off. Its illegal in Va. but even the local fire department drives down in one of their trucks to watch the show, Heck last year we had them and two police cars sitting and watching. All of the neighbors come out and they even invite friends to come and sit out in their yards to watch the show. We keep it safe and the kids and wife's stay clear of fireworks which we light off the street. The next day we spend about an hour cleaning up all the mess the fireworks make.
