Ok so, in spirit of the upcoming fall season and seeing as how it won't be as brutally hot anymore, I was thinking of getting a paintball group together.  Mind you, i've never played paintball, but the idea of getting pelted with paint actually sounds kind of fun!  Would anyone be interested?

This definitely sounds like a great idea. Paintball is alot of fun, I have been a few times. Also i like the idea of combining a trip to GA in October. So I would definitely be interested.
Depending on how many want to head to GA after (assuming all do not want to stay), we can always try to arrange the carpooling to have one car stay/one come back... Or, figure something out if necessary.

Another possible idea; in lieu of paintball, there is also outdoor laser tag:

all the fun of paintball with none of the mess or potential welts! I saw this last year when i was researching laser tag arena's
hey im down katie!!!!! just let me know on date, time and dough :o)
Would we be playing on a private field with just our group?
Probably not unless if we get a decent number going or if we went on a weekday ( not likely for most of us). I suppose isf we stray more towards speedball courts we can get it with just our group.

I think what Dar is trying to ask, however, is "how can I guarentee that Keith will be on the other team so that I can be allowed to shoot him repeatedly."

May I suggest Katie P. pick a date and location and set a deadline to sign up?
Katie, we totally need to go out and watch the games, Giants fan since birth!!

As far as paintball - never done, would love to try it, and yea - I'll be one big black & blue but who cares. lol

Yay! Finally a fellow Giants NJYP fan!!! (Can't tell you how many Jets fans ive come across here!) I should also post some football watching events too!

I typically stay away during fright fest due to the "crowds" that go.

I'm a Giants fan, but just love watching NFL football in general; so, I camp out in front of a TV on Sundays in Fall. As a result, I try to stay away from making plans, but... that said...

I did see that there is one in Jackson, right near/next to Great Adventure. It'd be great if anyone wanted to combine a paintball/GA trip, I haven't been on the rides in a few years - and think GA has discounted prices after 4? I wonder if they jack up the price at that paintball place though? Anyway - Sun Oct 3, or Sun Oct 24th are possibilities for me (Giants play at 8, then Mon night on those dates) : ) And, I assume the 24th would fall during their Fright Fest time - could be good/bad. I went to it a couple times and didn't think the lines were any more ridiculous than other times. But, honestly, don't plan around me if another date is better for everyone, just thinking out loud...

It looks like a Sunday is best for everyone - Holly is there a Sunday that you're free?
I think there's a paintball place in Jackson (???) but I'll ask around and see what I can find.
I think I may do a Giants gameday forum post soon ;-) Either that or since you live like down the street from me, i'll just invite you over lol

Since I've never actually been paintballing before - Anyone here who has, can you please suggest some good places? I'm going to see if I can get a NJYP only game going on.
I like the idea of a generic meet up drink beer eat buffalo wings and shittalk football days. Generic cause I want to watch good teams play too. Let's get that forum post started up. Otherwise, I'm down for paintball if only to release some built up I hate my job stress lol.
