00:00And Darius Rucker took to Facebook to basically call us all sissies because the way that they used to celebrate, the way they used to celebrate Fourth of July was definitely next level.
00:11We had the Bottle Rockers fights and all that stuff.
00:13You know, we were, I was a typical little crazy kid, you know.
00:16In South Carolina, it was always legal.
00:18Fireworks were always legal.
00:19So, you know, we did all that stuff.
00:22You know, I almost blew my hand off once.
00:23Crazy.
00:25Almost blew his hand off.
00:26You know, almost.
00:27I think everybody did back in the day.
00:28I do remember Bottle Rocket fights.
00:30That was a classic Fourth of July.
00:32You know, you'd shoot Bottle Rockets at people.
00:33That must be a guy thing.
00:35I never was like, hey, girls want to shoot Bottle Rockets at each other?
00:37There were some girls who were really good at it, though.
00:40Really?
00:41Yeah.
00:42Yeah.
00:42All right.
00:43Well, I feel like the texts are already going to start coming in.
00:45I just, that was not me.
00:46Not you.
00:47We used to also blow up watermelons.
00:48We'd stuff them with, there was a firecracker called M-80s, which are totally illegal in Florida.
00:53Sounds super safe for children.
00:55Yeah, like I'm thinking maybe prison time now.
00:56But again, this was back in the day where an M-80, when you were like a 10-year-old kid,
01:02an M-80 was like being invited into the gates of heaven.
01:05If you, it was like, if you got one, oh my gosh, it was worth whatever trouble you'd get into.
01:10Where are your parents?
01:11I mean, how do you just get an M-80?
01:13That just sounds scary.
01:15They were busy working with the police trying to figure out where we got the M-80s.
01:18That's right.
01:19No, but we would blow up this huge water, but we'd stuff them in like 10 of them.
01:21And the watermelons would actually get air before they would explode.
01:25It'd be like, it was crazy, man.
01:28This is so bad.
01:29But my brothers did get in trouble one time because I have three older brothers.
01:33They went and they took, and I'm guessing it's probably the M-80s that you're talking about.
01:37And they used to go to the newspaper stand and then put it in there.
01:40Oh, man.
01:41And blow up the newspapers.
01:42Wow.
01:42They got in big trouble.
01:44My mom found that video.
01:45Yeah.
01:46It was bad.
01:47All right.
01:47Well, 4th of July, we got goals.
01:48Let's make M-80s great again.
01:49That sounds like something I could get into, man.
