Paintball?! What's that?

we sponsor a paintball tourney every year, we invite 4-5 different companies to participate, we pay for everything and play for the day, bbq/refreshments afterwards.  We have had so many people that last 3 years I've had to help ref and never even fired a shot.  I miss playing but since my kid moved away I don't play anymore.

He's got a kid, and I don't know how much planning went into it, so no.

He's so bad he had to bring 3-4 markers to a game just to get 1 that chronoed. What's more, he couldn't touch the marker while chronoing in. If he did, it wouldn't work. He had to have one of his team-mates do it for him, and then hand him the marker right before the start of the game so that it would at least work for a bit before going down. Dead serious, anything that guy touches fails to work.

This brings up potential questions it would be amusing to ask . . .


. . . but I would have to give myself a strike for asking.

For mine the strippers were afterwards at the whiskey tasting room.

But honestly, strippers are skanks. Who wants that? If you need it, just load some vids on your smart phone and 100mph tape it to your marker.

I was thinking about doing paintball for my buddy's bachelor party but I just couldn't figure out how to get it to work.  Maybe you can help me out.  I know what field to have it at, and that field has all the amenities.  They have markers for rent, paint for sale and air compressors to refill tanks.  They have a small concession stand with some of the best home made jambalaya I have ever had.  The bathroom facilities are just porta johns,  but they keep them clean enough.  The only part I can't seem to figure out, is how to talk the strippers in to getting out on the field.  How did you do it?

So anyway it was a friends bachelors today, we went paintballing. The field was such a setup up for wasting paint. After the second center flag game they changed the rules to "team zombie". So I got shot to pieces. First time in about 6 years that I came home with this many buises.

The safety aspects made me cringe. I made sure my mates had their masks on all the time basically.

My trusty 98 death stick let me down. The ball retaining detent broke. Of course I didn't have any spares. So I ended up playing with a rental BT 98 style marker. It worked ok. I went through 4 of them in one game.

I am obviously a paintball jinx.

All in all, fun was had, the groom to be enjoyed himself. Everyone came home with all the same number of body parts.
