Fireworks Show Screw Up at Rye Playland?
MyRye.com readers are reporting last night's July 4th fireworks show at Rye Playland was a screw-up – that the show started late and was very short, only to continue after a long delay.
Were you at the show? What did you experience? Leave a comment below.
Here is a video of the fireworks. At the end of the video, the fireworks seems to just stop, without any sort of finale:

The fireworks finally started at 9:45pm. After 6 minutes of “warm up” fireworks with one long pause, the show stopped. the crowd hung out for about 10 minutes and then started leaving. About 1/2 hour (10:20) after the fireworks stopped, they re-started. Hard to believe it was worth the cost to show them at that point since most of the crowd had departed–and what about the poor folks who paid to sit on the beach and/or park their cars??
