Hey, i was just wondering, if a group of crows is called a "Murder" and a group of owls is called a "parliament" why don't fire twirlers have a cool collective noun.

Troop is ok i guess but what about something like

a fuse of firetwirlers
or an explosion of firetwirlers

any suggestions.

I don't care who you vote for

Just don't vote for the guy who likes war, destruction and earning money over earning respect.

A conflagration of fire dancers?
