Set your
Party on Fire
with Forsyth
fire truck biz
By Park Davis
davispark34@gmail.com
Forsyth has an exciting new party business, Party on Fire,
that will bring the sizzle to your tailgate, movie night or
block party event.
Philip Bunn of Forsyth dreamed up Party on Fire and
converted an old Monroe County fire truck into a party
entertainment vehicle featuring a mobile booth, five TVs,
satellite service, and strobe lights to make it happen.
“Party On Fire is ready to entertain at corporate events,
weddings, tailgates, birthday parties/fire education and
more,” says Bunn.
Bunns fire truck was the same one that he used when
rushing into danger as a firefighter. It was also used to help
put out the Grits Cafe fire in 2012. “The truck used to be
called in for horrible situations. But now when it’s called in,
both kids and adults can use it for good fun. You can watch
TV, play video games, or listen to music in or out of the
truck.”
When he bought his old fire truck from the county, it
wasn’t in good shape. He was going to use it for hauling.
However, some of his friends, retired fireman Ed Wilson and
Jerry and Courtney Moon, gave him the idea to use it for
birthday parties. Bunn loved the idea, so he fixed it up then
added TVs, a sound system, and lights. The truck’s five big
TV screens are now video game-compatible. Kids and adults
can hook up their own X-Box or game system and the whole
party can play. The sound system can also be hooked up to a
karaoke machine for hours of singing fun.
Party on Fire has already been hired for many events. It
has been used at both Mercer basketball and baseball game
tailgates. Families of the Class of2022 called it in for their
graduation parties. The Party on Fire truck also appeared in
the St. Patrick’s Day parade in Atlanta. It was used at a block
party at New Providence Baptist. Community gatherings
and birthday parties have also been recently provided by
Party on Fire.
And Party on Fire is about to get even better. Bunn has
plans to attach a C02 cannon, dance floor lighting on a rack
and a theater-sized projector screen to hang from the ladder.
Charges vary. To setup an event with the Party on Fire, call
478-444-5729 or find Party on Fire on Facebook, Instagram
and Tiktok using #partyonfireladder.
