I joined my 15 year old son and his friends birthday party playing paint ball this weekend. He had 8 friends but one was a no show so I filled in. It was fun but hurts when you get hit in the head or the side with little protection.

I won the 2 player match and very first match I got shot before I even shot the gun. Something that you might want to try at least one time.

I played once with a bachelor party group a few years ago. We (drunk bachelor party attendees) were a team against a bunch of die-hard, full-paint-ball-jacket fools. We played a Capture the Flag game. It came down to me and one guy on the other team as the only remaining survivors. I hid in a good spot and waited for him to show... He did, eventually.

I saw him lurking - and duck into a hiding spot., he never saw me. I crept up behind him and gave him a chance to surrender. He turned with his gun raised — so I shot him three times in succession. We won! Dude was none too pleased.

Me and my buddies used to play every weekend when I was in college, always had a blast. I've been threatening to get back into it, but I'm not sure if at 32 I could handle it any more.

You can def handle it. Check out a video on you tube called the unknown soldiers its a bunch of guys who nobody said would make it in paintball rangeing all differnt ages at the beggining. I think the two head guys are upper twentys low thirtys.

But yeah one of teh best sports ever invented. The only thing that sucks is i live in fl so in the summer its to freaking hot to play but in the winter i play every saturday. Never thought there was a more expensive sport then golf til i started paintballing.

Wow you're pretty much an awesome dad. I played paintball when I was 13 or 14 with a group birthday party and three dads came along in camo, face paint, the whole shabang... It was hilarious to all of us until we realized they were actually serious and had us all crying by the end of the day... Rules don't apply when you're twice the age of the referees and paying the game fees I guess - was an awesome time for sure.

I used to love going paintballing, and I still do on occasion. I personally find it too expensive, especially for a 16 year old searching for a summer job, and I'd much rather spend my money on golf!

I was on a paintball team in high school...we never did speedball, though, just woods ball. We played just about every weekend and it was a lot of fun. If you haven't done it, I would suggest trying it. It's a lot more difficult that you may think. The re-enactment games are fun too.

What I've pieced together so far:

SQ Dymo Squared 10.5* Driver
SQ Dymo 3 Wood
Slingshot Hybrid 5 Wood Forged Pro Combo OS 2, 5, 8 Irons Forged Satin 53* Wedge Putter: Affinity Loop Pro Combo Stand Bag

      I’m not sure I agree. It’s just what the majority find more entertaining. Most people prefer women’s gymnastics over men in the Olympics. How much hype is there with the men’s compared to the women’s? I bet you can rattle off several big names in women’s gymnastics and only a handful of men. Women’s tennis …same thing. And sure enough, their purses are the same. However, WNBA, awful…LPGA, not near as much interest than PGA. Don’t think it’s really that complicated IMO.

      How Much Water do You Need to Drink?

      How Much Water do You Need to Drink?

      If you walk up to a food/drink kiosk at Magic Kingdom and ask the person for a cup of "magic water" they will give you a small cup of Sprite for free. About 3 fingers worth. They don't sell alcohol at MK anymore so I go over to one of the courses while she hangs out there.

      This isn't some kind of natural fact. It's a lot more complicated than this implies.
