Tunaball 6!!!

[Ando]

ROFL...Zondo. Did you drive into DC on your way up?

[Smoothice]

Mad that I pulled my hamstring but otherwise an absolutely great weekend, fantastic people, with great guns, and great times.

Simon

It was an honor carrying you off the field.

Dude... Siri took me on a tour. And I forgot the name of that app you told me about! I had XMOD in my head, too.

Another one in the books. Saturday was overcast and humid most of the day - not a BAD day for paintball as it wasn't hot as blazes, but SOME sun would have been nice.

Lots of games run all day, Tuna was busy fixin' stuff, Simon pulls his hamstring shortly after getting in to play. Got people all packed up and over to the cabins. While there was some organizational SNAFU on the campground's part, we all found a home, got cleaned up and made it to the restaurant for dinner. Back to the campground for campfire, stories and drinks.

That night, we brought back an old AO Day tradition - the midnight phone calls. What I realized is that we don't have as many phone numbers as we used to. We did get messages to or talk to:

AGDJon, Potatoboy, Behemoth, Creative Mayhem, Oldsoldier, Magman007


Second day was pump/mech day. Some people just hung out that day, myself included, but the sun came out and made for a great day of play.

In all - another fantastic weekend of play. BIG thanks to Big Evil for setting this up and for all of the folks that came out. If you want in on the old-school AO spirit, Tunaball 7 is a must attend next year!

As "Tunaball Season 6" weekend officially come to a close with the SoCal crew all boarding planes this afternoon - it's now time to roll the credits.

It would be damn near impossible to remember everyone who came out to participate this year. Let me thank EVERYONE who came out this year and some extra props to all of you who I needed to delegate some responsibility to. I am truly grateful for you all.

An extra special thanks to
- Loguzzzzzz/ Practice Target for helping out with some of the leg work while I was unable to.

- Fred, Thordic, Rkjunior, Dayspring, Gus and the rest of the 'old guys'; thanks for making the "new guys" all feel like part of the crew.

- All of the SoCal guys for making the cross country trek

- Pillage for once again 'porking' everyone at Tunaball

- Lornecash and P8ntbal4me for the extremely generous items for the raffle.

- Chaplnstone for the 2 enormous circus tents.

- Mike Quinn for fixing my Mq2.

-Beemer for attempting to unFUBAR my shoebox and once again bringing his "A game". The make will be one day dug up by archeologists and found holding a bottle on one hand and his Xmag in the other.

- Ando who was unquestionably the MVP of the camp ground. He is one prepared Mexipino!

-Rudz for taking care of the Tee shirts

- Rob Zondo who after missing his flight and potentially getting butt-raped by the airline, jumped in his car and did a 12 hr canonball run from FLORIDA to NEW JERSEY. My new personal hero. Especially considering that there were local people who couldnt be bothered to show up.

-Simon "Manike" Stevens, industry VIP who once again took time out of his busy schedule to come to Tunaball, hang out with the guys and have a good time. For those of you that don't know Simon, he just doesnt make an appearance - he stayed all weekend, played hard, pulled his hamstring, then afterwards hobbled back to the cabins and broke out the 'Simonizer' and proceeded to play bartender.

-Props to Carl, Jim, Carljr, Dios, Ken and the rest of the Topgun family for all of the hard work you guys put in so that we can shoot the hell out of each other all weekend, AND for the help in securing the cabins where we all stayed.

And more thanks to
Laurel Ponds
Tommy's restaurant
Enterprise rent-a-car (or cargo van(s) in out case).
Lander Market
Costco
Ando's liquor cabinet
Holt's cigars
Jack Daniles
al-Qaeda Bagels
Barios pizza
5 Hour Energy
Lysol spray disinfectant.
Tylenol, Advil, Alieve, and Bayer.

... and a very special thanks to Mrs. Evil, without whose permission, none of this would have happened.


Last and not least, our mentor and my good friend Tunaman for keeping all of our mags going long and strong@ To TB6, and to Tunaball 7 in 2013!

Ah, I didn't get a super close look at it but all I knew was I want one... That thing was beautiful. I've always wanted a KP and that blows one of those out of the water.

Get in line!

I'll race you for dibs!

Airport Rudz

I read the report. He was hiding the spare drive train for his Luxe up there so his bag wouldnt be overweight.

[BigEvil]

So, should we go with the FIRST weekend of May 2013 or the LAST weekend? for TB7?

[Redic]

I vote for the first weekend. It will less likely to get very hot

[SoulCoffin]

I say last... Or first weekend of June...

I'm getting married first weekend of may

[Fred]

If we want to get Master Wang to attend next year it needs to be NOT the first or last weekends in May, since those are his birthday and anniversary.

Efforts must be made to drag his arse out.

[Ando]

I'm game for anything. I'll be driving from KY this time. Just let me know when and I'll be there.

[Thordic]

Wouldn't the last weekend in May be Memorial Day?

You'd have to think that'd have lower attendance with all the other stuff people generally do that weekend.

[BigEvil]

Yeah, well, 2nd to last w/e in May. June is out for me.

[Smoothice]

1st weekend in May will always be my kids birthday. So I would prefer 2nd to last or last in May.

[BigEvil]

Ruth cleared 1st weekend in June. What say you all?

[p8ntbal4me]

Set a date and Im there,....

already saving the cash

[zondo]

I won't be able to pull it off next year. I will be... elsewhere.

[BigEvil]

I won't be able to pull it off next year. I will be... elsewhere.

It wont matter, you can just do another cannonball run.

[Rudz]

Just give us a fly by Zondo

Security was easy, I paid extra for premier pass, lol. Hell they even let Smoothice use the Premier line with me.

[d4m4don3]

I read the report. He was hiding the spare drive train for his Luxe up there so his bag wouldnt be overweight.

[zondo]

Just give us a fly by Zondo

Well, if anyone is going to be in NY next week I'll be doing fly by's there.
