There’s no substitute for coming home after a long hard days work, slipping into some fat pants and picking up the good ol’ remote control for a rousing game of Halo 2, Gears of War, or Red Dead Revolver on your Xbox. There’s just something about first person shooter games—blasting away the opponent with an imaginary AK47 then reloading for more—that makes the heart sing. Now you can experience the real thing (death free!) at the newly constructed third season of the Giant Paintball Park at OC Fairgrounds. It’s the perfect way to combine that passion for fat pants, guns and hurting your friends all while loosing the pronounced gut you’ve obtained after years of holding that controller.
