Black Bull has been that destination for the New Buffalo and Harbor Country area since 1998.
Why New Buffalo Customers Cross Into Indiana
The Indiana-Michigan fireworks law difference is the main reason New Buffalo area customers make the short drive to Black Bull. In Indiana, consumer aerial fireworks repeating cakes, artillery shells, Roman candles, and sky rockets are fully legal for consumer purchase. Michigan has stricter restrictions that limit what stores there can carry.
