Pride 3-man May Event at Yellow Jacket Paintball
One of the hottest Paintball days for sure! Temp was in the 90’s. Thank goodness no one passed out! Roster was me (Stainless), Chris (CashMoney), John (Cow) and Andrew Zorn.
Well, our day did not start off well. We lost 2 of our first 4 games. And with only about 12 teams on the list, we needed 2 more wins. Our draw was no “walk in the park”. We played some of the best teams around, 65 South, Blitzkrieg, YJP Home Cookin’, Mid South Mafia and MTP. Game 5-WIN, Game 6-WIN! We now knew we were close to the finals. With such few teams, only the TOP 4 were going on to the finals. Well, 2 teams tied for fourth, but we were ranked THIRD, we made it in. Our next 3 games of the finals were all about letting loose and having a good time. We made it this far, so let’s get out there and do our jobs! Well, we won 2 of the 3 with max 100 points, and maybe got only one elimination on the other game. Normally it takes 3 wins to get FIRST. If you win 2 of 3, then easy SECOND place. Well, while we were loading up the trailer, they called out third place, hum, not us. Then second place, not us again. We were thinking no way we got fourth! Then BAM, SHOOTERS take FIRST! Wow, what a day. Couldn’t have gone any better. My thanks to Chris (CashMoney), John (Cow) and our pick up player of the day “Andrew Zorn”. Of course after the day was over, Andrew made the comment that when he and Chris play together (PSP stuff) they always WIN. It told Andrew, if he would have just told me that earlier in the day, I could have relaxed a little!
