In addition, camera tripods were used to accomplish“ drilling” or“ excavation” missions.
Red Commander Curtiss“ Beast” Baumgardner recounted the mission with“ radioactive” balls that required special gloves to carry and had to be retrieved on field and then brought back to command control posts for an off-field game of hoops.
“ We had snipers out there and my guys were prepped, and as soon as the props dropped, we were able to descend on the area and steal all of the balls.”
But the fan favorite was the alien autopsy which involved multiple steps for completion. Beginning off field at the Char insert, young guns and kids were tasked with retrieving“ mucus” from the Char.
“ They had to get Char DNA from the Char respawn,” Mad Frog said, explaining that the kids had to pick up this“ alien snot” with hot dog tongs.“ It was funny as hell to watch.”

“ It gave me an opportunity to send certain players to do certain things,” he said.“ I had a young lady walk in the box in tears having a tough time out on the field.
