Colorado AO Day... ROCKED.

[Thordic]

Wheat beers = lemon.

If I could spell Hocker Schorr correctly, I'd use it as a reference, but since I'm sure I spelled it totally wrong there, no one will know what I'm talking about :)

Shooter bunkered two guys and then stood up right into a lane of fire. That sucked! Looks like I won the welt count though!

The best comment by a ref that was said to me (that old guy that we all loved):

10:00 AM -- Man, where'd all these mags come from, someone rob a museum or something?

5:00 PM (same guy) -- So you guys are sponsored by AGD right? Man, I guess mags can still hang. How many years have you guys been playing together?

supposedly you're not to put lemons in wheat beer (says my friend who went to germany). But ever since I had one, I need a lemon for mine.

Shooter also shot a fellow AO'er that was on his team.

Twice.

Dawump also gave me one. I guess the bright yellow jersey wasn't a visible enough sign not to shoot(myself and Hemlock were the only 2 people there in yellow).

Had a great time!

I just wanted to throw in my 2 cents.

ShooterJM - Great job taking on the task of getting this idea off the ground and sticking with it.

To the whole crew who came out (and especially the guys from New Mexico and Grand Junction) - thanks for making the effort to get out and play. It has been a long time since I have played rec ball with a group that was as much fun as this group was. It was great to see all of the classic AutoMags, and better yet, to play with a bunch of guys who were willing to listen to strategy, take bunkers, and generally move up the field.

Just let me know when we are doing the next one!

Gonna have to try to explain this one.

Ok so the first time: He took off to the right side of the field. I went left and pushed up to their base. I lost track of him and got pinned down at a bunker by about 4 guys. I shot them out, and, unbeknowst to me, Obsolete had swung around and was coming into the bunker from the other side. So I start walking, gun up, toward the bunker trying to figure out if anyone else is in there. I see a mask coming around the edge and pop it. DOH.

2nd time: Same thing. I was up in the bunker and just wasn't paying attention. He shoulda given me a payback shot on that one. It was bad! And like he was saying, he was wearing a screaming yellow jersey.

And the worst part. they were back to back games.

Yea but I just shot him on purpose ;-)

Actually No, I'd just come up the field and someone shouts, watch it, there's a guy under the satelite dish.. so I shot him.

Sorry dude. Perhaps you should wear a brighter yellow next time ;-)

Hey (little things keep popping into mind). Thanks to everyone who came out! It was great finally meeting you guys! I had a great time, unfortunately we didn't get to hit the speedball field, but maybe next time. Special thanks to Obsolete's and Hemlock's wives for putting with a trip soley devoted to paintball, and my horrible directions.

Definately going to have to do this again! (at a cheaper field)

[Hemlock86]

We should have split up into 2 teams and played that 3-man tourny there. We probably would have wooped some ace! I dont know what it was, but everyone just clicked.

Now those are the kind of beers I can really support.

[ShooterJM]

A post paintball brew is a fine thing!

Yeah, I started thinking about that during the day. We probably would've done pretty well in that tourny. Out of the 6 or 7 games we watched I saw ONE guy move after the break. Not too fond of putting up an entry fee for a trophy though!

cool web site. Havn't actually ran out and bought the automag as of yet, but must say you guys were very impressive on Saturday. I'm one of the guys that took some of the pictures at the end of the day for the gruop pics, should have gone out and had a couple of brews as well after the abuse from those automags. It was our first time out on a paintball field and only have had our markers for just a few weeks and all the guys there from the automag group were extremely friendly and very forth coming on good information about playing. Thanks from a bunch of newbies. We'll be down there again this upcoming Saturday. ANGUS

Hi Angus,

Good hanging out with you at the end there. Glad to see you accepted our invitation to AO.

Perhaps we can have the next AO meeting in your 5 acre back yard ;-)
