News Report From 1991 - Old School Paintball

by Dana

Bahaha, this news report from the early 90’s is absolutely great.

Middle Eastern Darth Vader? Today she would’ve been fired, hahaha. My favorite is the ‘feminine flair’. Wonder what she’d think of the pink guns, pants, and masks of today.

Wish they’d have some stories similar to this today. Nice to have some positive exposure for paintball.

Oh, and gallons of paint. Going through all of 500 rounds per day. Wowie, what a bunch of trigger happy fanatics. Interesting how the prices remain the same.

I’m just glad that kids under 18 are allowed to play now.

    Man, that background music made me want to tear my FINGERNAILS out! And I love the owner’s hair. Good clip, though - I remember those guns (before I got my Splatmaster!)
