I know it has nothing to do with any level of football but it is Missoula related and it’s also the Doldrums of summer. WTH! The mall has canceled the firework show with no explanation?

My personal take is that the original owners of the Mall were, for the most part locals, who had a sense of community and provided the fireworks show as a part of giving back. The new owners are out-of-staters without that sense of community and probably look at the show with a bottom-line view.

Yeah, as we all know, if you’re from out of state and operate the town’s only mall, you can’t have any sense of community. Further, the third rule of business is to keep people away to maximize profits.

That was kinda why I brought it up. There is no explanation. Several local news agencies including the Missoulian and KPAX have reached out and got radio silence. Just a blanket statement from the owner saying basically they’ll try again down the road. I think, like most have said, the logical explanation is several things. Higher costs, logistical issues, and probably poor planning by someone new to the game.

Bro, it’s Canada. Have we learned nothing?
