the field as you watch the enemy just keep raising their hands to leave as you hit them from such far distances, which is a game changer in big games! Orange pushed hard in the middle of the game and almost caught up to blue team, but in the end, blue won the battle of the day and we all got ready for Reign in Paint which is the final battle where the hits don’t count and you just try to iron man as long as you can take it or until you run out of paint or air. Shields are allowed and many are quite creative. Players dress up in all kind of garb and it is an amazing display of the firepower on paintball fields today! Many think they will just stand in the open and take it, and after a few seconds, they almost always bail due to how many hits they are taking. Tippmann and GI Sportz had a tent on 0114 paintball.media magazine site where they were doing free marker repairs and selling gear, and the bi annual big sale was being held that day as well so deals were to be had! I even got a new 6+1 belt as my 10 year old one finally broke in pieces. It had rained for 10 days straight before the big game, so everyone was covered in mud and paint and grins were seen all over as players exited the field and headed to the staging area next to the new Time Trials course that you can compete with players all over the country to see if you can get the fastest time with your paintball gun. The crowd gathered in front of the military vehicle where prizes were thrown out and passed out to matching numbers from your entry. Everyone who wanted one also got free Trails of Doom stickers. It was an incredible day and I can’t wait until October for the next battle of Ohio at Splatterpark! Come on out and join us for an epic battle!
