Laws on "Paintball being illegal in Flordia"? Doesn't make sense, considering the World Cup is held there.

How does that apply to paintballing?

(sorry if sound dumb, I am a newbie paintballer as of today.)

Also, he says you HAVE to be in an arena, he wasn't.

I doubt it. Check for some local fields.

Go here: http://www.brasseagle.com/eagleville/search/default.asp?nest=1

This will locate fields near you. If there are fields, it is not illegal to play. :)

I don't think you are spamming, but you seem to be missing the point. Anything is illegal if you do it on someone elses property if they do not give you permission. That is why pball fields exist. If you think about it, public woods are actually owned by the gov't, and I'm not sure they like people shooting pball guns there. That is probably why whoever got in trouble. Save yourself some trouble and play at a certified field.

Well...
I am not really missing any points because I am on your side.
My friend over here is missing the points.
He is on AIM right now arguing about this:

SnipKIA: dude what ever its elegal trust me
DigitalLimit: illegal!
DigitalLimit: spell it right!

Few minutes later:

SnipKIA: well your pissn me off man dang its ilegal and u wont take my word for it i live here

Any comments? IM him and set him straight!

[orryn]

I gotcha, he just sounds like a fool to me. Shoot him in the head a couple times to set him straight. :D

Well, if you go out in the woods and play, thats someone elses property, of course you are going to get ****in kicked off. But since there are a bunch of fields and tournies in florida, it isn't ****ing illegal to play. Of all the dumb things...

They kicked me out of disney for playing paintball with goofy, those *******s
