Different world today, thats for sure.

If that happened today, they would have to evacuate the building

Bet it was a cherry bomb ..Scared a few but at least the guy threw it where nobody was.
It looks like in vid they knew who did it.
Today it would be a terrorist attack and all kinds of overreaction.
Still yes it was a stupid thing to do in the wrong place.

Yep, M80. Probably drunk thinking it would be funny...Maybe even a dare. Today he would risk being shot.

If it was an “explosive device” instead of a firework, they would have cleared the building even back then.
