World-Herald Fireworks Not On The Fourth

Contrary to what is printed in today's "GO" section of the Omaha World-Herald, the newspaper's annual fireworks spectacular is not happening on July 4.

In a clever two-page spread on pages 12 and 13 of the "GO" section, World-Herald staff writer Dane Stickney outlines a "minute by minute" list of options of things to do on the Fourth of July. But the 19th of 20 items on the list reads, "Find a midway point, look to the sky and relish two fireworks displays - in Ralston and at Rosenblatt Stadium."

But the Grucci-produced fireworks display at Rosenblatt, as mentioned in an adjacent story on the same page, goes off on July 3 following the Omaha Royals' game against the Iowa Cubs.
