    I mentioned to some of you at the Yard House that the 501st may have a paintball day.
    It is likely going to happen. Anyone, and everyone is invited. They are totally cool with having Fan Forcers there, and may have Rebel Legion as well.

    It will likely be March 1st, in Bellflower. The websight is www.Hollywoodsports.com

    The more, the merrier. I will be attending.
    I think it would be great if we had a group represented. The details are not finalized, but will keep you all abreast.

    Does this interest anyone?

    Only if the 501st plays in their armor.

    Then we'll see if Stormtroopers can REALLY aim!

    HA!

    If others are interested, the paintball is 100% confirmed. All should feel welcome, only half the folks are 501st.

    Date: March 1st, 2003

    Location: Hollywood Sports Park, Bellflower

    (http://www.hollywoodsports.com)

    It cost around 25.00, plus rentals.

    Any 818/626 folks can carpool with Jiltedtoo and I.

    I am so down for this, I just soiled myself. I of course will be playing for Black Sun and not that pitiful little band.

    Hollywood Sports Rocked! It was a ton of fun. Despite the 10 bruises I have, which two have turned into welts, it was a blast.

    The four fields all have different themes. One is Max Max (i.e.: Beyond Thunderdome),
    Egypt, Lunar (which looked like star ship troopers) and one is post appoloclyptic
    nuclear war. The location really makes an effort to keep the themes going.
    Plus, they are very much safety oriented.

    Best of all, early in the morning, I got 2-3 kills. Not bad for a beginner.

    If we, (and maybe the 501st) could ever could a group together, it would be fantastic way to spend the day. It requires 30 and cash deposit to reserve your own field. Although not cheap, I recommend it.

    A ton of people were (well not nerdy, but hard core) with their own guns and equiptment. (But I guess people would say that about me and making my own beer, say if we went to a make-your-own micro brew)

    Glad To Hear You Had Fun. :D
    Those Paint Balls Sure Do Sting Don`t They. :(
    2-3 That Is Great For A Beginner. :D
    I Don`t Think Your Strange For Making Your Own Beer.

    Patience Patience, for a jedi must have patience.... First we must eat!

    I will bring a bottle or two of Bubbas Brew version VIII to the meeting. This is a good batch, 5.5% alcohol. Like a darker New Castle.

    But Jilted, you don't like beer?
