Paintball
Played paintball today for the first time in my life. Indoors. After the first time I got hit in the face, paint splattered through the airholes of my protective mask, under my glasses and into my eye. Not fun. Even after wiping the paint off my eyelid, I couldn't see very well because my goggles had greasy paint smeared all over them. That made the entire experience less enjoyable than it might otherwise have been. It's hard trying to shoot at people when you can barely see them. I accidentally fired at the referee a few times before realizing he wasn't on the opposing team! He didn't say anything then but later on he reprimanded me for taking "blind shots", a term used to describe the tactic of sticking your gun out from behind a barricade and firing into the opposing team's general direction. In my case, it made little difference because I couldn't see even with my face exposed. Maybe if the arena was filled with fog that would even the odds.
