That's such an awesome concept for a situation. And it's so realistic! A person's house is MUCH more likely to burn down from mundane shit like this, rather than something dramatic like arson or lightning strikes or something.
I think you need a comma between "barbeque" and "destroying," but that's a minor criticism.
This is a really great sentence. Very interesting situation. Great job. -
wow. That would so suck.

I liked this. I think its a petty cool story for the contest
Good luck !!!

Wow. That's a mouthful. You really did write a whole story there... the only thing is that it just didn't flow very well
