      The exploding mannequin with the Blue Jays hat, the shifty side eye the young girls gives, the street seller not given a shite and waving them around. The whole piece is just 🤌

      Black cats used to be great. Don’t know what that one going on about them going off 3 times. They are bangers, they explode once.

      Ah the good old days of the 90’s

    3. Oh my God, black cats, there’s a blast from the past (if you pardon the pun)

      Now visit the Netherlands on new year’s eve, you’d think it was the Troubles all over again. 

    5. Where’s Noeleen’s daughter now?

      My cousin used to sell them in the local market. He’s now a fireman.

      The good old days of running rampant around with your mates letting off bangers. Bold stuff altogether but good memories

      Roman candles and repeaters were class too. Feck that sticking them in the ground, hold it in your hand and fire them in the general direction of yer mates. Fearless/stupid when young.

      People joke about how easy it is to throw them and I just wanna say that every year around Halloween I see a slew of hand injuries come into hospital. Believe or not, people fuck this up all the time and blowing your fingers off is a shit way to enjoy the holiday.

    11. Ah the days spent blowing up cow shite with screamers and blackcats. Coz why not..

      Group of us walking down a main road in Dublin one Haloween night. One of the lads was in the habit of carrying a cigarette behind his ear. This night he had a banger behind the other.

      As we’re walking along, completely out of the blue and witout saying anything to us, he sticks out his arm for a passing bus as we were at a bus stop. Bus stops, he reaches behind his ear, lights it and throws it into the bus. We’re all like „what the fuck are you doing!“ and the bus driver looks horrified for a second. Then the driver looks down and starts roaring laughing. The gobshite had pulled the cig from behind his ear, lit the end of it and threw it into the bus. Diver pulls off, and yer man is left looking like a tit.

      I suppose it was a better outcome than taking the banger out, sticking it in his mouth and lighting it.

    13. I prefer the Podge and Rodge educational song ‚Never stick a banger up yer arse‘

      Ridiculous that they are legal everywhere else except here. Nanny State.

      They should only ban the big ones, where I’m from there are much smaller ones that don’t cause any damage if held (by mistake)

    16. I remember about 10 years ago we stopped being able to get them locally and got Dum Bum bangers instead. Far bigger more powerful and the fuses were unpredictable

      Anyone ever get the Black Cats that had a sulphur striker like a matchstick instead of a fuse? Those were sketchy!

    18. “Get yer BANGERS ROCKETS N’ AIRBOMBS”…. ahhh the good old days on Moore Street as a nipper 🎃

      I was a kid and was with my nanny on Henry Street back in the 90s where they were openly sold. My Ma said we can get a few bangers for Halloween (obviously for the adults to light). Me and my nanny went up to some man holding black cats and rockets.

      Turned out it was a plain clothes Garda that had just confiscated them. He just said „go away, I’m a Garda“.

    20. I was one in Prague for new year’s and there were idiots running through the streets setting off bangers, and launching rockets and roman candles from their hands. Some people have no sense.
