Penny stick = firecracker? Where you from boy? Lol.
Penny sticks are what they always called them up here in PA growing up. And I always got them thru friends who vacationed in free states so I was pretty deprived lol
I grew up in Northern VA and we got all of our fireworks from PA. Never heard them called penny sticks. You can get all the same stuff in PA that you can in SC.
Idk how old you are but when I was growing up @ 30 years ago PA legal fireworks were ground effect sparklers and lights only.
You being from VA you would have had access to ALL the fireworks in the stores. Time was if you had a PA license you were only shown an aisle of boring shit while the out of states had the pick of the store. Bc of course it was presumed you were returning to your state to use them.
A few years back they changed the law so ALL fireworks are legal incl mortars etc. Kinda cool. I drove to Alabama from Florida when I lived down there just to load up on bottle rockets and various sizes of firecracker lol. Now I just have to drive down the street.
A friend in high school was where I heard them called that and at least in our area that was the term I always heard. Idk the origin of it.
I'm in my 50s. Growing up, I think most fireworks were legal in VA, but they changed that long ago. We would drive up to Breezewood to Phantom Fireworks (IIRC) to get mortars, etc. I remember when you had to have a PA license to get the good stuff.
