Did you ever see a Black (African American) Paintballer?

[MrTiggleBitties]

I know I never have. And I dont want to think of this as an all white sport.

[amzng_spyderman]

i play pb with a black kid. i tried to get my black friend that i work with to play, but he works every sunday.

[iTz NyaGo]

see em all the time.

[Forest Spyder]

I've played a few times with African Ameircans. It's definetly not a white-only sport....... like Polo :eyes:

[IromKnight]

yes

[Woods Sniper]

If half black half white kids count, then yes. He's one of my buddies, and he plays regularly. He's 14, but he's the size of a 4th grader. It makes the day quite interesting.

[paintballer42o]

I see as many black people as i do white people. Its not uncommon.

[tonysk83]

There is one black guy at my field that is kick ***, but mostly I just see white kids, the other time I see black kids is when my friend from North Carolina coms up here and plays with us, hes black. In the pro curcit, it is defiently dominated by whites.

[willpill]

one black kid is so loud on the field. running and saidying ow. and saying insultts back in that kinda "voice" ya know?

and for polo. i saw a southpark. where the rich black kids play polo. but its southpark. so i dunno

i see alot of em.

no offense again. but they show up in backetball clothes and ecko and stuf....

but some are real good.

[Canadia_PBaller]

Well I live in Canada, so seeing African Americans (or Canadians) anywhere is pretty much a rare occurance.

[SinfulCindy]

I knew a young black kid that plays and I saw an older black guy at a field once just to check it out with his friends (it was funny when he saw me come off the field after getting out in a speedball game, because he went, "Whoa, man! You have girls who play, too!") Other than that, I haven't seen many. I see a lot of white and Spanish people, once in a while a few Asians, but not really any blacks.

[Halliday]

I've seen a few. One day a few months 3 brothers came out to the field. I say brothers because the they were, and they were. They had a lot of gun playing "Gangsta." :)

Same.

[PMI_Guy]

Paintball is definatly a WASPy sport. There is this one black guy who plays at our feild sometimes. He has a Cheeta Spot Angel.

[amgman]

I play with my black friend in the woods and we kick a*s. They call me the South Asian Invasion(I am Indian from India not native american).

[eyesofsandman]

Come to think of it i have never seen one. then again i live where there are very few to begin with. By the way irom your avatar keeps getting weirder and its freaking me out.

[Radioman]

Does he play at woodland, because i dont think ive ever seen him?

[LAMANTEthePBguy]

the thought has crossed my mind too. Ive seen a couple in videos, but none in person. That also might be because the african american population in my town is around 10.

ditto

[tippycustom]

i havent seen any.

[killa2564]

im suprised tony hasent been in here sayin like "yea they have a mirror at my field so i always see atleast one"

[spencer_dale]

Well it really depends on where your playing. If you live in a heavly populated city, then you tend to see a more ethnic race, diffrent races. But the smaller the town, the smaller amounts of the ethnics groups. But, If you go in a big place, (Portland, where I play sometimes) you see alot of black people. but if you go in a small town, (Tualatin, small town where I live) you barely see any.

[Ruffneck142000]

One of the best Amateur teams in Indiana is rostered by black guys. F'N Hostile, they rock.

[thepeashooter]

What are black people???

[hessian_playa]

dont mean to sound mean but why are u talkin about this?
its kinda wierd i mean by talkin like this u kind of separate yourselves from the "black kids" and well i dont know maybe im just to white. just thought i d say wat little i did oh ya im kinda excited because i finally found a posative simple message!!! "try on a smile, ill bet u look good in it."
wat do u guys think about it please send only posative messagess because theres no point in being mean:D

[Scottc1988]

Kind of a stupid post, but yeah ive seen a lot, no big deal?

[asa4575]

as far as i know im the only dominican/puerta rican that plays, all my family asks why i play when theres nothing but white people (no they are not racist, just a little phycho, taking blows even to us) i only have met this african american this year who plays paintball. it doesnt matter though as long as i get to shoot paintballs at anyone it doesnt matter.:D

oh and i cant take people who are racist, though im a homophobe. :confused:

[MrTiggleBitties]

Its rare to see one up in Michigan

So Michigan is sorta like a Semi-Canada.

You go to Woodland too? Well, I went there twice, then I started going to TC Paintball

[sIc]

what are you talking about do you live in the provinces or the territories i mean there lots of black people in canada and there Chinese and Hindu and Arabic

[Jaster]

The fact that we have just about every walk of life involved in paintball is one of the things that make it so great. No one really seems to care who or what you are or look like. As long as you're a baller that's pretty much all that matters. We're one of the only sports that doesn't seem to have some kind of racial innuendo to it somewhere. At least not that I've seen. We all look the same in a mask.

[Kyle's Ghost]

i play with a couple black kids around my town...even though they have talons they still enjoy the sport...there are many black people in many sports that are better then white people...take James Stewart in Motocross For Example...He Is An African American And He Is One Of The Best Motocross racers In the World

[taso_winforce]

never seen 1 before.

[Thor the Mighty]

"yeah jim bob. i saw me a black 'un at the field the other day"

[PbSkater490]

Yes I know there are lots of East Indiands, and Asians etc, but there is barely no Black People (I live in BC) outside of Vancouver.

3 year old threads don't need revival, idiot.

[Shimboodo]

Oh snap, foo!

I hate the term african-american. Unless they've been to africa, they're black, or the words that no one has used since the 60s. No, not the N word. The other N word. The nicer one.

But to make this post legal...
I saw about 5 of them yesterday, about 10 Mexicans, and a lot of white people.

[DeathKobra]

Im probably one of the best beaner that goes to our field. Beaner = mexican.

[iliveforthis99]

I've only played w/ one that i can remember.

[Shimboodo]

We know.

Or, we should know. If you live in SoCal, you know.

[Sheps]

Why must you noobs always bring up threads with SinfulCindy in them? She was so cool (and a tad insane); and whenever I see them I'm like "Sweet, she's back!!!... Oh, this is from 2003..."

I hope to god you pasted that

and i've seena video of one once, the guy was crazy

[Crede777]

A kid who used to be on OhioPBX is black. We actually referred to him as "black mike" because there were two other mikes at our field. Also, he was the wealthiest out of all of us and had a new gun nearly every month. Once his Proto went down the day before a local tourney, and instead of getting it fixed or fixing it himself, he went and bought an Ion.

Also when he "quit" the team, he stole Eff's barrel kit. Well, actually Eff left it in his car, but he refused to give it back.

[Shimboodo]

Just because he a black man means he stole it?!?!/1?!?!?!

Course not. :dodgy:

[Crede777]

I wasn't implying that... it's just the convo went something like this:
Eff: You have my Empire Barrel kit in your car.
BM: So?
Eff: Can I have it back? Will you give it to me at practice next weekend?
BM: I'm quitting the team.
Eff: Ok, but can I have my kit back?
BM: ...no...
etc.

I have yet to see a *** paintballer.

[mrcheetos]

You can't deny it. When you watch paintball videos, or go to the field how many black players do you see? Very few. Unless of course you live in an are where the majority of citizens are black.

I know two that play, one refs at my field, and one is a kickass pumper.

[A-BOMBER]

CASE AND POINT
I've seen a couple of black and asian kids but mosly all white kids.Im not in any of those groups.

[Tweeters]

lol im an asian kid.

i played with a black dude from d2 bushwackers, he was cool. and very good.

get lives.

[drunkenMonkey]

I'm black. I ball. I'm like the only black guy at my field. Occasionally I see others, but it's usually just me.

[|æ|R|4|V|E|N|æ|]

I always see black guys at my field... i have yet to see one that doesn't blindfire though.

The closest I've gotten to seeing a good black guy playing, I was on his team in X ball and we were all telling each other where we were going off break, and the black guy asked me at least 3 times where I was going, and I told him where each time. Off the break I ran to the bunker and he slammed into me and bumped me out of the bunker. I guess he didn't like me:(

[PBmongoose]

saying how you dont want it to be an all white sport but look at your avitar

[gage713]

there is a black guy on my team...hes good 2, or he wouldnt be on the team:P

[di$TOrTed]

Yeah i was talking about this with someone the other day, i've never seen one in person.

[..!..('_')..!..]

There were 4 at my feild the other day. 2 were the Typical black guys, wearing the huge winter coats in the middle of summer and had cornrows, while the other two were really weird. They talked like white folk, and they had throat mikes... No one ive seen uses those... lol...

I saw the same ones he did...at the same time and place...:dodgy:
The "weird" ones were into woodball...they had A5's and like he said throat mics and were wearing all camo...

[nerdcore]

I see as many black people as i do white people. Its not uncommon.Agreed, but only at certain fields. Or field, rather. But i'm pretty sure players' races at any given field are relative to the races that live near the field.

[4THDEGREE]

anybody remember the team Pittsburgh Smoke?

[United Idiots]

Seen it all.

[Omniscient]

i live in a somewhat small town so it's rare to see black people, and i've never seen any at my field.

People drove down my road in a pickup truck screaming "white power" once.
Amish people also race buggies pulled by horses when they get smashed.

thought i'd give you all a brief description of what it's like to live in the middle of nowhere. i hope i didn't offend anyone somehow.

[Zpfuji]

I played with my friends african american cousin. We forgot to tell him about the surrender rule, and he lit up a friend from a foot away. One was an inch away from his you know whats.

[Shimboodo]

there is a black guy on my team...hes good 2, or he wouldnt be on the team:P

Pics or shens.

[BigTarget04]

We played against an all african american team in a rescent 3man tourny. They werent bad, not good either, their name was parental advisory and some of them had explicit content on their jerseys.

edit: after semi proof reading that little statement I would like to say their jerseys literally had explicit content printed on them, just to avoid any confusion.
