Group tour of AGD

[Zo]

9-1, gotta have time to make cash =)

[AGD]

Guys,

I will look into getting some dates. Right now things are up in the air with the NPPL event in Atlantic City so I have to get that straightened out first. What we can probably do is a tour late on a Friday, go to dinner on AGD and then go to Country Club for some paintball. Sound good?

Sounds good! You're the final word after all. The 31st is the first Friday after the Atlantic City NPPL event. That could be too soon after that event to find the time, so just let us know

[lonsch]

we could do it on the 24th (that is the day befor what everyone else wanted)

[hitmanng]

If the date is good I'm game. I will pick Lonsch up on the way by. Let us know what date works.

Hey Hitmanng...could ya pick me up too? I'm just a little bit further down the road...In South Carolina...

[skipdogg]

If it's on the 24th im in. I'll probably be bringing two other friends with me.

Dawn and myself will be in Lansing the second weekend (I think - dates should be finalized this week) for the open house at the Bad Boyz Toyz Lansing store. I doubt we'll be able to get away over to AGD, but last I spoke to Tom he was hoping to be able to drop in at the store, so if the dates are close you might want to come by after touring AGD. Whichever weekend it is on, the Saturday we will be doing a free dinner and spit roasting a couple of pigs. Typically "Bon Bon" the JT girl, and a number of Aftershock players show up.

See you on the field,

Dunno how Badlandz makes their $$. You can buy field paint from them for $75/case. Of course, those in the know BYOP. The field fee is kinda high at $25 w/your own equipment. So the field fee plus whatever Gatorade/water they sell is how they make their $$. Plus they host lots of tourneys too, like the Chicago Open.

FYI, the weekend that billmi is talking about is the big sale that BadBoyzToyz is having at their Lansing IL store only is Sept 7-9. According to the flyer I picked up last weekend, Byron Benini (head designer @ Dye), a SC Ironman, the Push video maker, and the new Paintball Junkies girl are supposed to be there. Reps from AGD & PMI are supposed to be there too.

Any Chicago AOers going to that? Maybe we can clean them out of that roast pig on Sat night.

I would really like it if one of you guys could e-mail me the specs(dates,times,money) b/c i might have to make a road trip. I live in buffalo and maybe me and my mom could do a little bonding *wink*wink*. So any help would be nice!!! thanks

your willing to fly to this thing? wow.. i am not even sure if i am going to be able to play at countryclub, and I live in the area

-rick

[lonsch]

hitmanng - thanks for offering to pick me up if your feeling really generous think you could let 10 poor paintballers crash at your house on the 25 My team was planing driving down to action park Saturday morning practicing at the field and staying in a hotel Saturday night.

brian123 - only if its a platinum card

[thei3ug]

Brian, not just mothers... pretty much to get looked at you have to place a grand on the counter and go "i am now your favorite customer."

Oh yah, and I promise I will not pocket anything if you have a tour. Lonsch and Brian will make sure.

[i-luv-my-rt]

So what are the official dates. I might even fly there from up here in buffalo. Or have a fun road trip. I need all the info.NOW j/k thanks

Lonsch my sister in law is here from California. I currently have 8 kids and three adults living in my house. I think that might be against fire regulations. They might leave before the 25th. I will check it out and let you know. A bunch of guy sleeping in the basement isn't any problem with me. I will let you know.

I may be wrong but I do believe that mothers are not allowed into Bad Boyz Toyz unless they show a credit card at the door.
LOL

[Gambit1106]

Hey the later the date the better. That makes a less of a chance I have to play with this cast on my ankle. I wonder what the doc will say when he will have to replace it because of all the paint I'll have on it. LOL.

[Nitroduck]

I might wanna go....

Tom - you should have like a AO gettogether every 6 months or so, like one in the fall, one in the spring and rent out a field like that new badlandz hyperball field and get all the peeps on AO to play

Tom,

Did you figure out what would be a good date for the tour?

[boza]

You think you guys could swing by florida and pick me up? It's not on the way, but it's worth it!

[lonsch]

ccp is having an anniversary party on the 24-26. prizes given away every half hour. $50 case of paint-probably blaze. paint is only for that weekend. just a thought

[SHAG]

Hi,

I wish I could make this one. I would love to see AGD at work. Outside of Palmer's Pursuit Shop tour, I would tell work to go to hell for a trip to Chi town.

Later
alan

PS I made it to 69, my favorite number.

Paintball cannot be that big. No one has really been able to sponsor a stock car or a race yet. (local people do not count in this case )

[slushee]

Alright .. really I need to know a set date!! I'm from Southern ONtario canada and figure i'll take a train to chicago .. i just need to know when to reserve a car and a hotel!!!

[snowman]

So, is this tour going on the 24th??

[skipdogg]

This idea seems to by dying. does anyone have a date nailed down? Did Tom give his availability to the 24th yet? I am still planning on coming down for it on the 24th. IF it's happening??????????

Maybe i can buy a Z-Grip when im there???

[Gambit1106]

The post from Tom stated that he would supply us with some dates. I haven't seen anything since I am sure he will get back to us. With all the stuff that is coming out soon I am sure the man is swamped.

Darren

[Xzion]

slushee; where in southern ontario are you? might be able to be traveling partners presuming I can even get the time and/or money to even make the trip.

[irbodden]

Extended stay in Lincolnshire is pretty nice, and cheap, and its near a bunch of real nice restaurants and the local 20. If you have more cash the Marriot Resort is good somewhere in the 100 a night thing. The extended stay is like 50 I think.
