It would only be usable at the beginning of the party. Can you imagine what us drunk fools
would do with actual flaming torches?

Better limit it to one natural gas bottle. Or does LPG make a better flame?

Dearest; an apple russet- brown
I pared, and thrice above my crown
Whirled the long skin; they watched in keen;
I flung it far; they laughed and cried me shame
Dearest, there lay the letter of your name!
