Who says Coney Island is closed?! From the looks of it, the world renowned amusement park couldn't be more open and inviting. Tonight's attraction brought in droves of people from all walks of life. All these people came to see...
This dude get his hustle on.
No just kidding! They all probably came to see another spectacle of lights: the Coney Island Fireworks which take place every Friday night at 9:30pm, all summer long. On the eve of Independence Day, the fireworks were especially befitting for this weekend. Here's a little preview below...
The fireworks have been a tradition in my native Coney Island for as long as I can remember. The crazy thing is the formations of the firecrackers and designs of the show have always been the same throughout the years too! Nonetheless, I love it because its FREE!
So eff "Macy's Annual 4th of July Fireworks Display" and your hearts and smiley faces and 3D graphics... and eff the $200 tickets just to watch from a chic rooftop or fancy boat!
I'll take a redundant display, on the wrong night, with a neck-breaking view from the rickety boardwalk, surrounded by drunkards any day!
Or you can watch it clearly from the many tall buildings in Coney Island in comfort.
