The Friday Fireworks, about the only reason to head out to Nationals Park these days, have been suspended indefinately after DC's Fire Chief was hit by debris during the most recent display.
Of course, by debris, we mean some paper shreds from the fireworks, it's not as if a shell landed on his head and then blew up. He also overrode his own fire inspector who had, numerous times, approved these as being safe.
The company charged with putting on the display is currently trying to figure out alternatives to get the show back on for Friday nights.
Update: According to the Washington Post (h/t Jenn) the Chief and the Nationals have worked out a compromise, and fireworks will be back for Tuesday night's game.
