I live in downtown chicago. I go when I can, money and school etc. etc. poor college student and stuff. I have a Pro/Carbine with a jj ceramic 12". As soon as I get a pack I'm gona be running it through a remote. I was thinking about Ice Wars, but now that I look at it, it might just be to much money for me to do that. I duno, we'll see what all I can get by next week, I'm talking to this guy who is selling me a bunch of stuff on the cheap (he use to own a field in Wisconsin, they are trying to liquidate it all). Where you from?

if you want a GOOD place to paintball, go to badlandz, $25 entry, free air, bring your own paint, awesome woods and speeball courses, and the 16th+17th of march is half price entry and rentals!
ihate, where in orland do you live? because i also live in orland park
Dravion
03-06-2002, 11:03 PM
I don't know... don't really ask the guy too many questions because he's not use to answering many... and I don't really like him that much, just talk to him to get some cheap stuff :-D

03-07-2002, 02:33 PM
its right off 1-394 heres the website
http://www.buyshocktech.com/pages/badlandz/badpages/location.html
trust me, its so much better than cc and cpx,
with cpx, you wait 20 mins inbetween games, pay out the wazoo in paint, play with people who have no skill and cheat, and speedball is even closed off there for tourney play
country club- 10 bucks for entry, pay for air, 110 bucks for a case of pmi! whats up with that, and only one course. it gets boring
badlandz is the BEST place around

there are two sup airball fields right next to each other and the netting can be moved or opened so you can do full field or horseshoe or other cool designs. prices are 15 to get in with all day air and 100 per case. they are right on randall rd between rt64 and dean st in st.charles

04-26-2003, 12:56 PM
ewww, to expensive, id rather go to badlandz and play for cheaper and there fields are probably 50X better
kidcopone
04-26-2003, 02:55 PM
badlandz if super cheap its only 25 bucks to play all day (8am-6pm) and air. u can also bring your own paint which is sweet. plus i always grill out when i go. i've been to a few fields but badlandz is my favorite. plus i'm only 20-25 minutes away.

i'm reffing the tri city rookie series. you have to compete in all three tournyes to win the prizes. first place out of all the tournys wins three new 2003 vf autocockers. we are using one of our fields and open games will be on the other. let me know fi you guys havea ny questions about the tri city events
ihatespyders
07-16-2003, 02:25 PM
How are the fields there? Is it hyperball or what? Like how many teams are signed up so far? Is it rookie, Novice..... Ya thats it for now
thanks
nick
devilman2646
07-16-2003, 03:28 PM
yeah its like hyperball with inflatable bunkers but no air hoses running around on the floor. so far i think there are around 8-9 teams signed up. it is a rookie tourny. captains meeting is around noon.
tonysk83
07-16-2003, 05:10 PM
How do we register for it exactly......call tri city or what, what info will i need to give them, when should i pay for this thing, can i pay the day of the event?
devilman2646
07-20-2003, 06:15 PM
you really should go in and register for it. when you register they need your payment, team name, team roster, captains name, signed waivers(i think they can be brought the day on the tourny) and i think thats all they need. if you look at the bottom of the sheet it says prizes are determined by the number of players. so if we dont have enough teams registered by the day of the event then the prizes may be changed so it would be best to get in there as soon as possible. as i think about this the registration might already pe closed for this first even on the 27th. i am not sure though but i thought i hearn them sayin that. so i would hurry up if i was you.
