...paintball magazine and came over this really good idea to get paintball out.
"One of the things that I commonly read is the desire for some to have paintball on channels like ESPN and ESPN 2. Well, it's not like one day you'll suddenly see paintball on national TV. We need to start small. Field owners, when you have a tournament or a big scenario game, call a local sports writer or local tv station and invite them to the event."


I think that last part would help. Just a thought...I guess

Good idea Coffey. It'd be intresting to see a reporter at a paintball tournament. The only one's I've seen have been for Paintball News. Hmm... :)

thats a pretty good idea, actually its been done around my way though. at a wayne dollack scenario game at skirmish USA, they had reporters from a real tv station interview some of the players who were roleplaying and they interviewed wayne himself.

One of our local tournies was in the local page of the newspaper(a fairly large newpaper too).

Anyone think about researching the cost of doing their own public-access paintball news show?
