No Warped Sportz or Angel heaven at World Cup

[Thordic]

In the, at least at Killington (the biggest ski resort in the eastern US) the bars are down the road from the resort a little.

At Sugarloaf, everything is located AT the resort.

Note: If you leave a keg outside in Maine overnight, it WILL freeze and you WON'T be able to get any beer out of until it thaws If you leave all three of your kegs on the porch overnight, you have to drive to the liquor store an hour away and buy a quarter keg to tide you over till the other three defrost.

And if these companies that want to get "wild" want to do an event outside the main venue and after hours? ahhhhh. You have the best of both worlds.

It has been done that way in the past. At one players party, AFTER the children left they had "lap" dancers (they were clothed, barely). Not all that wild, but I did get Glenn Palmer in trouble (ask him about it some day) .

At another players party they loaded up whom ever wanted to go and took a bus over to Mitchell Bros. in San Francisco. Hard to get much wilder than that and still be legal. The point is, even though I thought it was a bad idea at the time, it happened outside of the tournament. No one was accidentally involved. If you were involved, it was because you wanted to (maybe with the exception of Glenn ).

Good points, and thank you for the post.

Yes, that was my point exactly.

I personally never drink any alcohol that's worth talking about when or after skiing since my wife is always skiing with me

Now after playing paintball that's a different story

[halB]

just bout all i said was an exaggeration, however the real point of the matter is this, are we too turn into some organization like football where players are fined for every improper thing we do? are we to turn into some sport where we curtsey before our games? i think what the psp is doing is destroying what draws most people to paintball. the culture, the extremity, the sport itself.

to quote someone else

Isn't this how many earlier paintball "organizations" went from being the vangaurd of the sport to being a distant memory.

i think this just might be the case. i may not drink personally, but if you think paintball is the best sport in the world to watch from the sidelines your living in a dream world. its as boring as baseball. so shouldnt we follow what baseball does, and get our fans piss drunk??

joking guys, joking.

although i do hear xball is very nice to watch

Very

So how many people wont be going to WC because Warped wont be there?

If I could get there, I would. I get annoyed by drunks (even tho I am one occasionally), and I get annoyed by 13 year old boys drooling over strippers.

PSP never said they couldnt have pretty girls selling guns, but they wont be too crude about it.

Heres an idea for Warped... Make products that will make customers want to visit your tent, then you wont have to pay the hookers to attract perverted men (like me).

I enjoy both naked dancing women and beer as much as the next, but both in the proper venue, not where there are little kids present. The single thing that bothers me most when I'm anywhere booze is being sold is some 16 year old kid begging me to buy him a drink.

A paintball tournement is not the place for either of these things. And to the kids who think paintball is an extreme sport, its not. Just ask the 300 lb. guy playing back.

I'm not going to shed a tear for warped sports, becuase they are everything paitball shouldn't be.

fun and exciting!

[Rooster]

last time i played paintball there were no naked women, no beer, and no rock concert. And i did have fun, and it was exciting.

[halB]

true, but naked women would sure maximize the fun! and ya gotta consider the prime demographic of paintballers, young teenage boys.

Yes you do. And young teenage boys are not LEGALLY old enough.

[Spaceman613]

And those young teenage boys get their spending money from middle aged mothers and fathers usually. You have to find a happy medium.

A beautiful woman at a vendor tent is fine, a half naked woman with a barrel in her clevage is a little overboard.

If a company NEEDS these things so badly that they wont attend an event without them (temper tantrum), then they obviously have such poor products that they wont sell themselves.

well, the problem is inappropriate isnt really defined, so who knows, maybe if they just showed up with the midgets theyd be thrown out cause they think midgets are inappropriate.
