Utica, New York, the notorious city of fire and smoke just recently had another scorching event! The 120 year old F.X. Matt brewery recently had a fire Thursday evening minutes before their famous weekly Saranac music event. Luckily nobody was seriously injured. Rumor has it, if the ammonia tank located in the building had exploded it would of leveled the entire brewery. I for one ain’t the least surprise of this blazing occurrence. The years I have lived in Utica I’ve literary witnessed entire blocks that burnt to a crisp on a daily basis.

That is surely a hell of a lot more smoke than that noon lunch whistle.
