Bok Kai Bomb Day
1 of 22
Bomb Day participants grab for a lucky ring during the 133rd annual Bok Kai Festival in downtown Marysville on Sunday, March 17, 2013. Each of the ten rings are shot into the air by exploding firecrackers, or "bombs," and are thought to bring good luck for the coming year. The Chinese festival dates back to the 1880s.
