Burning Bamboo?

If this topic is inappropriate or in the wrong area, please move/delete it, and I apologize.

I have a bunch of bamboo on my property, most contained, but not all. I have read online some of the pros and cons of burning bamboo, but I was hoping for "real world" input from a community of experts. My son, who is one more example of the adage that inside every Scout is a pyromaniac waiting to emerge, has volunteered to burn it when it is dry. He would be burning it in an above-ground, free-standing fire pit, if that matters.

Yes? No? I'm crazy? What sayeth this forum?

Probably not the right sub forum but why not.

My understanding of bamboo is that if it is not contained, you have a problem.

I also know it costs a bunch to get the poles where I live, so maybe Etsy would be an option. It also makes for good pioneering poles. Much lighter than wood. 

Other than that, I'm ignorant about bamboo.

I saw someone selling it roadside in cut, stacked bundles the way you would sell firewood. People apparently use it for tomato stakes. Not sure how much you'd be able to sell though.
