Chicago has a ban on fireworks. But if you take the I-294 toward Indiana all you see is billboards for “Krazy Kaplan Fireworks” in Indiana.
Because just like guns, Chicago gets all its llegal fireworks in Indiana. And somehow it’s legal to advertise illegal products. Weird.
Would a consumer fireworks ban prevent dumbass gender-reveal explosions?
I’d say yes but also no. I think one solution is to have a place for folks who want to get their hand blown off to do in a safer area like maybe a flat park that’s specifically designated for such fireworks which should be far away from houses, trees, and grasslands. Basically one big dirt field. I believe that’s how it’s done in Bismarck, ND from what I remember my sister told me.

Oh wow, that used to be a Rainbow Foods market back in the day. There’s a Chicago style pizza joint across the street (can’t believe they’re still open!) that was pretty good ages ago. You want their phone number, I still remember it because it was one digit off of ours. 
You can buy fireworks in Costco in Indiana. And all the other stores too, such as Meijer’s, Walmart, etc.
Go further east on 94 and you’ll get to Shelton’s which cannot be missed from the highway, as it’s about the length of a football field:
Not sure. Given Laschet, I doubt it.
