Who here has a home theatre room?

1) Projector and big ass subwoofer.
2) Turn up the heat in your house. Add a bright ass lamp.
3) Throw in some sand. Hire random douches to come by and step all over your shit/kick sand all over your shit every 2 minutes.
4) Turn off lights. Stick in Blu-ray recording of fireworks.
5) ???
6) Profit.

My boss is taking all the employees on a dinner cruise for the fireworks this year, first time for me watching the fireworks from the water. Hope it will be good :)

Are the bleachers located above the washrooms? HSBC used to hand out those tickets to its VIP customers and upper management crew. I guess now that they are too cheap to sponsor the event, the new sponsor (Keg?) is selling them instead.

do you guys know what time the fireworks start?

noTirl 07-27-2011 07:01 PM

Are there any viewing spots where lazy people can just drive to and watch from the car? lol

LSF22 07-28-2011 10:08 AM

I tried from Cypress viewpoint last year, it wasn't bad. Watching up close from English Bay or even Kits still the way to go if you find a spot early enough

So over fireworks.

I can see the displays in New West clearly from my living room..and I can't even be bothered to go on the deck to get the 'outdoor' experience.

Every year, they can't get sponsors...make a huge mess in the city and someone gets pepper sprayed or stabbed.

It's time for something new.

I was down there tonight (gf lives in Yaletown so we didn't have to deal with the traffic)

China put on a show. it was super epic. You know it's good when people think the end of every sequence is the grand finale. It started to rain RIGHT after the show ended.

maxxxboost 07-30-2011 11:25 PM

I was at Ambleside. View was not so good. But the people were ok. Plus there was a live band.
