    Shatnerball 2007 anyone?

    Is Shatnerball 2007 going to happen?

    I was looking forward to shooting my PumpMag along with Tom Kaye himself in sunny Southern California and giving Bill a nice bright 68 caliber gelatin covered paint projectile at 280 feet per second.

    Bill is swamped due to his recent popularity explosion with Boston Legal. In years gone by he was looking for things to do, now its exactly opposite. We have not been able to get a new date from him so don't expect anything soon.

      Hey Tom...long time! Seeing how you're promoting "Celebrity Paintball" doesn't that mean it can be any celebrity that might be willing to participate? Of course, it wouldn't be called Shatnerball anymore. But I think people are willing to participate regardless of whether or not the main celebrity is Shatner. I think we all just want a chance to play along side you again.

      Allowing other celebrities to participate could open the doors to many more charities who wouldn't mind benefiting from paintball players. More celebrities, more charities, more events, more Celebrity Paintball for everyone!!

      Of course, that would mean you'd be sucked back into the gritty world of paintball.

        We have tried to get other celebs to no avail. Including, the Mythbusters, Tuttles from Orange County Choppers, The Rock, Costner, Wayne Brady, etc. Its a lot harder to get a celeb to come to your event than you can imagine. Even Shatner hates dealing with them.

            ACK! Well, I have a buddy who used to hang out with Linkin Park. I know those guys have tried playing before...if you wanted, I could have asked him to ask them.

              Invite another Paintball Industry Leader?

              Oh well that's showbiz.......

              Hi Tom, thanks for inventing my markers!

              What about inviting another Paintball Industry Leader?

              Anybody know Budd Orr?

              Would be cool to renew the great Mag vs Cocker wars at the paintball field.

                  Haha, I can see it now: "The Final Conflict - Autococker vs Automag"


                  You could sell t-shirts for each team with "autocockers suck" or "Mags are for ***s"

                    You just asked the wrong people. Try Mark Hamill. He is known to love being around his fans and there is plenty of us Star Wars fans to be around. While your at it maybe a midwestern venue also.

                        Chicago wasn't mid-west enough for you guys?

                        BTW, for those who asked...Tom and Budd are best of friends.

                          Not quite the case. See I am young, and when it was in Chicago I was younger. My mommy wouldn't give me a ride

                            Tom,

                            I lived in Chicago for well over a year when my job kept me there and the local DJ, Erich "Mancow" Mueller was a HUGE promoter on the airwaves for Shatner Ball at the Xtreme Park. It might not hurt to contact the radio station and see what interest is there. Recently, a radio personality on his show, Cowboy Ray was injured and passed away from the injuries he received in a hit an run accident. I was shocked by this tragic event as everyone else and we all miss Cowboy Ray. Cowboy Ray provided alot of laughs to all of us and I understand that the person who caused this tragedy still walks free with even a 10k sum of money on the table. Maybe an event could be staged in "his" behalf to ramp up the reward monies for information about the person responsible for this tragic event. Cowboy Ray is loved and missed by many and it would be awesome that the paintball community reach out on his behalf to find the person responsible for his untimely demise and bring them to justice.

                              Mancow has already been involved with shatnerball, he lead the Klingons a few years back. Who knows, he might come back and play again.
