I think this is a great idea if you can find a target. Did you see how much paintpeople a flinging what a cash cow. You also would learn things like leading a target etc. This is a breakthrough in my mind. But again if you can find a target.

They gave him a 100 dollar tip. I would love that kind of tip, so I think its cool to have that job.

Sounds like the feild doesn't even have real games. It's just target shooting. Sorta' lame if you ask me.

They've been doing it for years out here in California, it's a fair booth (Indio Fair is where I see it) with several low end blowbacks on constant-constant air tanks (huge who knows whats under the table) and you're paying .25 a ball to shoot at a dude in a gorilla suit, I do believe I'm the reason he quit though...
