I'm fat, old and bald. This just means I'm a seasoned lover and player.

BR: I've seen the game go from Nelspot with out pump handle's to the latest milsim marker.
The first year I played with shop goggles.
I have the very first Painball Magazine APG volume 1 number 1 with a McMurray & Son Annihilator on the cover Fall 1987.
I have the first 10 years of APG.
This June will be 23 years of total fun, I am training the 3 generation of paintballers in the family

Oh how I remember those nelspot days. I'm actually in a few APG. The one with Christy Tong on the cover her and another big breast gal. somewhere around 91". I'm pictured with a blue tank top on at the Music City open.

Andy you know how much I'd love to go and be in your staff.
Just can't at this time. Bummer!

Oh this sport has come a long way. The new players just don't know. Most of the think a shoebox shocker is old school lol. Do you guys remember the toilet bowl feeders? I wish I could find a nice B square or B cube loader, i know it's one of those names. Even a blacknight 007 drop in kit would be nice.

I still have several of the 40 rnd Ammo Box's, which were the industry standard for quiet some time.

I started playing in 1989 I was twleve years old and started with my dad he had a nelspot up grade barrel that had a direct feed into the breech for an "ammo box" I played with a splatmaster at the time later once I got into high school in the early 90s I took off into the sport when arena ball or speed ball was started and never stopped. My father got out of it when the SEMI age began. He still to this day says to me "I have created a monster".

I started in summer of '86' with a Nelspot rental using Uvex goggles.. I still have my first pump gun "The Gray Spirit" made by Lapco. wish I still had my first Micro Mag that I bought in 93. Lately, I've been getting back into playing with my pumps............

I started playing when I was about 15 I think. the field I went to was Red Fox Games here in Greenville and we were using SplatMasters. I upgraded to a Warthog pump and never looked back! To this day I am still out at Red Fox Games every weekend.
