Shoot ’Em Up!

Published on February 21, 2008

Itching to try out your bad-ass first-person shooter gaming skills, but not quite ready for combat in Iraq? Well then, do the next best thing – paintball tournament! MZ Indoor Paintball Park is bringing alive the art of combat via harmless paintballs and inflatable obstacles in a five-man Rookie Paintball Tournament. No Rambo skills required here, just a willingness to be pelted in the ass by spherical capsules filled with brightly colored paint. Bruising may occur.

The event, sponsored by KEE Action Sports, will begin at 9 a.m. Teams of up to eight can register for $300 per team, and Diablo Zen and Ultra Evil (sound wicked, no?) ammunition is available ($50 and $60, respectively). Prizes – alas, no pillaging or ransacking privileges -- will be handed out only if a minimum of 10 teams enter. Register by Saturday February 23.
