famous(or high profile players) you have played with?

[EastAl]

i know this will date me as a player.
but i've played with Ron Kilbourne(my personal hero!), Phil Dominguez, Evan Money, Wes Wong, Jim Rieble(sp?), Mark Thompson(Marker Products, anyone?), Little Jon, and a bunch of guys who are probably better known now, than they were a few years ago.
i've had the pleasure of bunkering Bob Long a few times. i *EDIT* Since you are new here, this will be a gentle reminder to read the rules of the forum. We don't like any form of cursing here, including circumventing the filters. Army Eric Felix in front of a crowd of people once(that was funny cuz we were talkin smack back and forth, and he had just said, "Are you gonna shoot me, or just shut up?", and WHACK! gogg shot!).
we helped Bud Orr build a boat launch ramp on Lake Elsinore. i hung out with Earon Carter, at his house. sadly he had a heart attack later that day.

i knew so many people that were either already great, or on their way to being great. and i left all of it behind. i can honestly say that paintball was, and is my first true love. and i can't wait to get back into it!

all i need no, is another gun. but, i won't tell you guys what it is i'm getting! hehe :p

later, Al

Well thanks for sharing, but what are we supposed to do about it? I think I'm going to go make a shrine for you now, the paintball god. :rolleyes:

[EastAl]

dick, it was a simple question. i am curious, not trying to brag.

but, you can still build your shrine to me if you want!:D

[bigsarge72]

This should really date me, but I've played against: GBD, Aftershock, Navarone, AA, and played some rec ball with Kevin from Bob Long's Ironmen in Caly. This was back when the NPPL was a Pro/AM format.

[Zumina]

I've had the opportunity to play with Oh Pawlawk at Predator Paintball in CA. Suffice to say, his flannel shirts are REALLY nice!

[EastAl]

sarge, i remember playing alot of those teams, when i played AM, on the GWS. you didn't happen to play in the Carter Classic in Vegas, in '98(i think it was that year). i remember playing a team from Hawaii, and was just curious(seeing as how you've played alot of the old school west coast teams).

Zumina, i never got to play with Oh. i met him once. that ad that got ran in the back of APG used to bug the crap outta me(him, and the girl. same ad for like 5 years).

sk8dood, Mmmmmmmm, cookie

[DiRTyBuNNy]

Got to play a couple of games with Keely Watson and the kids from Dynasty...

[banzaimf]

used to practice with UK preds. Played against some of the original guys from Strange (was asked to play memphis 96 with them). Nobody really famous or important really....

[Halliday]

I played against some guy from Slipknot one time. I don't know who exactly he was because:

1) I don't follow the band.
2) He was wearing a mask, a paintball mask :)

I played against the Wild Geese of New Hampshire in 1988 when they were using Phantoms. I had a Bushmaster (The original was a pump, yung'uns!)

I feel all old and crusty now.
