My father went over and berated them for their stupidity. He told them if they wished to pop off a few rounds to celebrate New Years, at least have the common sense to use blank ammo.Good for your dad. Using blanks is a good idea.
In Philly, these aren't "gangbangers" (as many here are supposing) who are celebrating by firing into the sky. It's just a longstanding tradition among Philadelphians - particularly in South Philly, from what I remember.

I was just up around Philly to see my Uncle. I was armed.
