list your first ever paintball experiance. we all know you were a noob at some point.
I was 13 and got a brass eagle blade (plastic hunk of random parts that surprizingly works). I had like 400 balls and a 45 round hopper. I first started by walking out on the feild without my mask. The first game of the day resulted in a shot dead in the back. I had no clue what to do all day long and stood in the deadbox every game trying to shoot someone. I finall shot someone but a member of my team. I was fed up for the day and let a ref run around shooting at other refs. Hard to beleive how far I've come from that day.

My first was back in '85. The local "public park" was "closed" to us to play. Layed w/ some POS gun.
The funny part was the unsuspecting family that walked in between the two groups. Both side thought they were the other and opened up. I always felt bad for them.
(BTW, paint, where's your dad a firefighter at??)

I was a Senior at Oakton High School and a friend of mine was really into playing. He hooked me up with one of his friend's Spyders and some POS single lens mask and the three of us went out to a field in the middle of no where some place in Virginia. Two hours into the trip we get there, get set-up, go out to play our first game and it begins to rain. I was wearing an old green hoodie, black jeans, and black tennis shoes. Got shot a lot, spent a lot of time in the dead box, but have been hooked ever since. After that it was one of those like every month or every other month we'd go play one Saturday or Sunday. Then came down to Daytona Beach for college and it really kicked off the summer after my Freshman year while working at the Space Camp in Titusville. A bunch of the Counselors would go play at Space Coast Paintball, because what better way to get rid of stress from working with kids all week long then to go shoot a bunch of kids. Formed the team Spec Ops there and it's been a non-stop roller coaster ever since.

My first time was back in 2000. I was lucky to start with a old angel LED. I went out to PaintballUSA and actually only got hit bad 1 time witch was on my side right under my armpit. Other than that my first time was a blast.
I was 12, I think, so about 8 years ago, and went w/ some buddies, to a local field that's in a cave. The masks sucked and fogged up, my loader kept falling off of my gun, and the Tippmann pumps were hard as heck to shoot. First game, I walked about four feet forward into the back lay down bunker, and started looking out a whole in the bunker. About that time, I got hit right below my adam's apple and walked out not being able to talk. I loved it though and have been hooked ever since. So hooked, I think I have 15 markers at my house.

About 9 years ago at Conder's in E-town Ky. Everyone were noobs, all of us with pumps. Got shot alot, but i also shot a couple people. Ever since then it snowballed. I go almost every weekend, blow tons of money, but have some of the greatest fun of my life.

I was 8 and my best friend Joe lived up the street and through the woods. he is 2 years older then me and one day iwlked up to his house and he was shooting a "paintbal marker" in his back yard. it was a Talon or somthing like that fom wal mart and i just thought it was the coolest thing. so we shot around in the back yard, shot eachother and all in all it was fun. a ball got broken in the barrel and we were like wtf eh? so he took out the little 6 gram Co2 and it was kida load and green n stuff. ill never forget that. but then that summer ibusted my bootay mowing lawns to buy my own wich was a Tippmann v68 or what ever they were. then i just built up from there. what a guy joe is! needles to say we are still the best of friends.

My son got me into the game. He always wanted me to take him so finally I did and decided that playing with my son was better than sitting around in the cold.
So we're on the same team (my son and I) and on the break he takes the closest bunker and I have to keep moving forward. I'm peaking around the bunker and notice that my bunker is getting shot. I come back inside the bunker and the bunker is still getting shot and I look back and my son is 'blind shooting' and he's shooting my bunker.
I start yelling at him to stop shooting my bunker and thinking he heard me I turn and face down the field again.
That's when I got shot in the back...

the first time i ever played was when i was 7 years old that was 8 years ago. do the math im 15. so my bro and i played. he had a e 98 and i got a pos pump action that didnt shoot half the time. and one time when he was reloading i shot him in the growing that was my first time i ever shot someone and then i ran and he cought up to me because hes really fast. and he shot me from about 5 feet away. and i was only 7. so needless to say i havent been bunkerd since. and im already half way threw my novice year so im going to try to keep that record :evilgrin:

The first time I ever played was when i was 11 and I was usin' a triton 2 that i got from walmart. I was pretty excited but didn't know what to do, and i ended up not playing for the first 4 hours. I finally saw someone i knew and he took me to the speedball fields with his team and the first game he bunkered me with his old LCD and I threw my gun down in pain and screamed " GIVE ME MERCY ! ! ! " hahaha, but i got the last laugh cuz now I have a fly and I replaced him on his team.
