IMO Alchol has no place on the paintball field. After hours drinking can be tolerated as long as the vinue allows that type of beverages.
Being intoxicated on the paintball field can only cause problems for the players as well as the producer, and field owners.
As we know Alcohol inhibits "critical thinking" no matter what the age of the user. Example a player on the top roof gets too near the edge of the building and "OPPS" there he goes and here comes the law suit. Not to mention the poor producer who's allowed this type of behavior to propragate. I knew a person who had a 3000psi tank and was intoxicated enough that he got into the wrong line for the HPA fill and almost blowed up the bottle by filling it in the 4500 psi line....

There is a reason 3k PSI tanks have 3k Burst Disk... So this is not a problem.

FYI SoCoJ2 the birst disk never did its job....the crossfire valve was perminately dammaged...I have the tank now and intend to have the valve replaced. Most burst disks are rated over the normal fill pressure otherwise everytimne you filled you tank to 3000pis you burst disk would fail....My 91ci 4500psi has a max fill to 5000psi before the safty divices are deployed.

Hey CBD: As long as your playing for the other team you can be as hung over as your want to be....LOL

[claydirt]

Even when you and TLG are drinking, paintball guns and players are safe. Now fire pits and glowing embers are a different story!!

I believe that for safety all people should be sober on the field what you do after the game is your bus. as long as it doesnt bother anyone or cause a problem. I bet getting shot in the head at a mount game the morning after would probably cause one hell of a head ache,(hard paint)

as a matter of fact it does.... lol... nobody to blame but myself.

to be totally honest- i was in worse shape on day 2 of AAA MOUT dea vs cartel II due to some Waffle House that didn't agree with me moreso than i was on day 1 when i was hung over... my body has adjusted well to hung over paintball.

on a serious note, even though i am by no means the poster child for sobriety, i as well as any recognize the need for scenario games to be safe and free of drunk people.
