More or less! If they dump 50gal. of water on the stump, it might not relight for a long while.

We didn't get to have fun like that. The City took that away.

There was a school in the neighborhood. The roof drained thru 6" cast iron pipes. We would stuff paper and leaves up them and light it up. We did this under the cover of the bushes in front of the building. Someone always noticed the smoke coming from the roof and stopped at the fire pull box across the street. We were long gone by then. LOL
