Display product in flashy colors, have babes stand in front of it... the children will come.. oh how they will come...

hehehehe :D

Oh, and have the cool "pro" player guy that the kids idolize to answer the hard questions like

Kid: "What gun should I get?"
Cool pro dude: "the one that sponsers me duder!"

It's so... tacky in a way. But.. paintball is still small and still growing, and in the past few years it has grown a lot. This is not new to me.. long ago I use to ride BMX and was on a team sponsored by a factory. Same dog and pony show..

thats smart parts for ya. while they may be the biggest a-holes on the planet and have crappiest products(imo after owning 2 impys and freaks), they have the marketing and hype game down to a science. its a shame really but what are u gonna do. people do what they can to make money.

Wish I had my scanner setup.. I picked up a paintball mag the other day, and I came across a Smart Parts add for their new "Burn" line of stuff.. they had two, very hot women laying down with the jersey's barely drapped over them.. it was pretty hot.

There aren't very many "hot" paintball models... you can find much hotter at the local mall really....

sry but imo i think the two sp twins are not hot at all

and yes it weird how it works but you can see a girl at the mall(whereever) and not look twice at her but if you put that same OK girl at a paintball tourney she is now
hotter then hell.
wierd.....

errr.. yeah.. must be a lot of Don Juan's here... I wouldn't kick any of theses girls out of bed.

Although tall blondes are not my preference.. living in California I see way too many of them. Gimmie short red hair anyday! Rarrrr! hehehe :D

They should've got the Olsen twins, now their hot! :D These girls are ok, but the Olsen twins beat them hands down. :cool: Of course though, they'd have had to pay like 20x as much.

I think he meant Bud's head is photoshopped...So it looks like he is looking directly down at the boobies. :D It looks pretty fuzzy around the back of his neck.
