    You know my story Jeff. Being over at your house while we were in junior high and you had some magazines and then one day you had some ugly pump gun. Then last July as I was doing research for paintball art after you had talked about starting up DTP I decided to buy my own gun.

    first time i went was spring 2004 with some group that our town had...you had to sign up for some rental package, it was some program to keep kids off the streets and not be lazy, there was way more stuff than paintball though.

    hahaha i dont even remember. i think it was with a hockey team party about 5 years ago or something like that and then i really didnt get heavily into it until maybe last year
    It ain't easy being steezy.

    Come to think of it, I initially got interested in paintballing after thumbing through the yellowpages and seeing some ads in there. Thought it would make for a great time with a group of friends.

    That was about 5 years ago... I played once, then only recently actually got into it.
    I just got a pretty sweet high paying job.. so it's not such a huge burden to drop a few hunny a month on a fun hobby.

    I can't remember how I got into paintball... I was in grade 6 and I invited all my friends to PAG outdoor for my birthday(I was 11) =D couple months after I bought my Spyder Xtra and took it to school the last day lol... Fun! My teammates I've known almost all my life. I told them about paintball and came up with a teamname joined an EVO tourney for our first.
