Who are your paintball gods?

[siloseven]

I posted a question on my team forums that came into my head while reading the-whiteboard today and then I thought I would see/hear some intersting resaults on AO, so here I am posing the question.

but who are your paintball gods? the guys that if you met them (or have) you would be on you knees thanking them for what they did for the game of paintball.

Mine are:

Tom Kaye
Bud Oore
Doc Nickel
Tippmann brothers
and just bairly Bob Long

Ummm I think its Bud ORR.

It might be considered blasphemy to misspell your "god's" name

[ElGringo]

I guess mine would have to be
Charles and Evan Nelson (Nelson Paint Company)
James Hale (Nelspot 007)
And the first players of "paintball": Lionel Atwill, Ken Barrett, Bob Carlson, Joe Drindon, Charles Gaines, Jerome Gary, Bob Gurnsey, Bob Jones, Hayes Noel, Carl Sandquist, Ronnie Simkins and Ritchie White

Tom is the only true god, the rest are like hercules prior to completing the 12 labors.

Even Velcor bows to Tom...it's true.

[Bartman]

The ones that I have meet and had a chance to talk with in no order of preference.

Tom Kaye
Fred Shaultz
Dan Bone Break
Bob Long
Budd Orr
