## Resource

Fireworks laws are a wild patchwork—Alabama lets you light ’em up in unincorporated areas but bans them in cities, with strict 10 AM to midnight July 4th limits in places like Madison County. You can buy bottle rockets and sparklers, but M-80s and cherry bombs? Banned since 1966. Must be 16+ to buy, no selling from tents or cars. And nationwide? Some states like Massachusetts ban all consumer fireworks, while others like Illinois and Ohio limit you to sparklers only. Always check local rules before you ignite anything.
