Awwww, yeah! About 20 nail-biting minutes into the last match, we were trying to silently creep through the woods to track down the other team when we fell into an ambush! I threw the last grenade, snapped this rad photo, and then a couple seconds later the smoke provided a dense enough cover that allowed a couple of us to right-flank our ambushers! AWESOME!
We've been playing painball for many hours and it is fucking EXHAUSTING! Not only are you running around full speed while carrying heavy gear, the fact that you're running through the woods and hunting other humans (and trying to to get avoid shot by the people hunting you because it HURTS) sends your adrenaline spiking through the roof every single game. It's intense.
(But it's not very awesome when you get hit at close range). Here's Nataniel showing off two close range shots he took in the arm in the 3rd match we played.
While my co-workers were gearing up, I wandered into one of the ammo shops and bought a bunch of TACTICAL SMOKE GRENADES. We hadn't even started playing yet and I remember I kept thinking to myself: "They just sold me tactical smoke grenades! PAINTBALL IS AWESOME!"
