San Diego Fireworks all at once!
« on: July 05, 2012, 07:48:14 AM »
I guess a glitch made the fireworks this year all shoot off at once.  Talk about a Big Bang!

San Diego's biggest fireworks show went bust on Wednesday night when a technical glitch caused all the fireworks to shoot off at the same time.
Just minutes before the Port of San Diego's "Big Bay Boom" was set to begin at 9 p.m., thousands of fireworks from five floating barges launched simultaneously, causing a brilliant display of pyrotechnics that lasted for 15 seconds.
Nearly half a million people across the city were watching the show, and video shot at the scene caught spectators cheering what they thought was the show's spectacular kick-off.
Others suspected something went wrong.
"Oh my God. Look at that. Is that supposed to happen?" said man in a YouTube video on a Los Angeles Times blog.
