FERRISBURGH — Pack a great big hall with nearly 200 firefighters, give them an hour at the cash bar, feed them and seat them on either side of a long, wide aisle, and chances are that anyone who has to walk down that aisle to collect an award is going to get catcalled, sometimes in ways that can’t be reprinted in newspapers.
