Why do rednecks scream "Freebird!" during fireworks?

[UNCjigga]

And why the hell did I stay in Charlotte for Fourth weekend?? Oh well, I did learn that Charlotte, NC has the 5th biggest Fourth of July celebration (after Houston, DC, New Orleans and New York.)

Hmm...I've never heard rednecks scream "Freebird!" during fireworks, exclusively. We're generally screaming "Freebird" where ever we go and what ever we do.

FREE bird...not FIRE bird. I know its some sort of Lynryd Skynyrd (sp?) thing...but during fireworks?

I've never heard anybody yell that either.

And...everybody in here is so proud of their hometown that it's cute!

"freebird" is a lynyrd skynyrd song. i don't see how anyone could scream it =\

Charlotte was ranked 5th in some AOL thing that probably has no merit whatsoever, but of course the city took it and ran. Benson & Hedges Symphony of Fire in Toronto pwns all fireworks shows in North America...so it doesn't really matter...
