BTW Key Biscayne royally whooped some fireworks ass on all of Miami last night. When all others pooped out, The Key Rats went on for another 20 minutes !!! And the quality of the explosives was on another level. I was unlucky enough to witness the mediocre South Beach display while admiring the Key from afar. I know where I'll be next year.
They sure did, watched them all from the boat, and had to say KB really stepped it up this year!!!
