once at a 7 man tourney in Oklahoma, my team only needed the 40pt flag pull to secure a 1st place win. my team captain designated me to run the gauntlet and get that flag pull.
at the whistle I dashed straight for the flag, I pulled it from the ring and stepped about 2ft when I felt what seemed like every player on the opposing team hit me with 10-12 shots. That wasnt the worst part.
I then had to stand there holding this flag at arms length in the middle of a firing lane until my team worked forward to pull it from me.
That game I was easily hit by 60 or more shots. I was literally dripping paint as I walked off the field. Luckily I was wearing a JT chest protector which deflected alot of the pain, but ow ow ow. Holding that 1st place trophy made it worth it though.

I got back from playing paintball today. I flanked a group of seven people behind a mound bunker. They threw SO much paint at me it wasn't even funny. Luckily I only got hit twice over the knee. (They didn't break.) I got about four of them out until my own team mate shot me in the back of the head. Oh well, I had fun playing the greatest sport ever.I love it so much it puts me in a good mode for a week after playing. (I probably still be happy even if I got "lit up" every game!)
