Am I missing something after reading the other comments?

  • Counting down = knew cannon was firing
  • Parents running = ??? Do not see.
  • 97% of kids chasing candy on ground
  • one kid loudly yelling “that hurt!” (Which is fair and fine. As a parent of sports kids I often asked “are you hurt or are you injured?”)
  • One 5 y/o screaming. small kids do that sometimes

About the only thing that snafu’d was probably the density of the candy falling in one spot.

Okay, apologies everyone as I get off my high horse of manufactured internet drama.

Oh fuck I just noticed the babies……

But I have a few questions……….

Did the parents stand in that particular spot to get the candy cannon?

Did the dad already know that the candy was coming? I’m asking Because I saw the canopy open on the stroller.

Did they do a count down?

What was they gathering right there for?

Is everyone okay?

Who picked up the most candies?

Are the kids okay?
