eddie Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 do you think paintball is a sport It's as much a sport as frisbee-throwing, darts, chess and rugby union Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSD Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 The pain of a paintball hitting you is like someone whipping a wet towel and cracking it against your skin. Hurts a fair bit shall we say! However it is one of the safest games to play..... something I find very hard to believe but you can't argue we stats I suppose. It's a pain game, not a sport Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 I know you're not supposed to argue with Wikipedia but Paintball is a sport[2][3][4] in which players compete; in teams or individually, to eliminate opponents by tagging them with capsules containing water soluble dye and gelatin shell outside (referred to as paintballs) propelled from a device called a paintball marker (commonly referred to as a paintball gun). Paintballs are composed of a non-toxic, biodegradable, water soluble polymer. The game is regularly played at a sporting level with organized competition involving worldwide leagues, tournaments, professional teams, and players.[5][6] Paintball technology is also used by military forces, law enforcement, para-military and security organizations to supplement military training, as well as playing a role in riot response, and non-lethal suppression of dangerous suspects. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paintball Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sage Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Paintball doesn't hurt as much as wrapping snow around stones and throwing them at each other. I would like to point out, I haven't done this for 32 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
