I don't know anyone who does. The Chinese maybe, but fireworks here are on the Fourth of July.

Gee..fireworks...that would probably be a whole lot safer than all the gun shooting that they do in Detroit on New Year's Eve!

To bring the New Year in with a Bang! LOL
nope, think it goes back to old traditions of scaring away
evil spirits.

I don't know when the tradition dates back to but, in any case, it is a way of making noise and showing our excitement jst as in any other party.

We do? I guess some people do it because it is festive but it's not a universal thing.
