BRASSO Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 (edited) Name the corps that shot off fireworks from its flag poles in the 60s. The Fire- etts, Norwich, CT. Or The Scarborough Firefighters, Scarborough, Ontario. Then again , could it be the Flying Dutchmen, from Quincy, Illinois ?

alankarls Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Mariners Brian, you're no fun. You should let people guess. Annie Mixdorf put an end to it in her shows. I think they were actually cited for fire danger during a drought or something. They did a lot of "cheap tricks" as we called it at the time. But they were always fun to watch and audiences loved them. Great uniforms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Thunder Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Brian, you're no fun. You should let people guess. Sorry. I usually don't guess in the trivia quizzes that show up here, but I wanted to play for once. The Mariners also opened their '74 Victory at Sea show with fireworks. I remember them fizzling out when I saw them July 4 that year in LaCrosse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northern Thunder Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 The show was rained out ? No. A hint: What I'm looking for involves the Anaheim Kingsmen, who won the show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRASSO Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 (edited) No. A hint: What I'm looking for involves the Anaheim Kingsmen, who won the show. They won despite a 2 minute penalty for shooting off fireworks from their flag poles in the show. If its not that, I need WAY more better hints to have any shot at all.
