BBC actually writes something positive about paintball!

This article has sat on the BBC homepage for about an hour now, and it's already in the top 5 'Most read' stories. But this is the first example I've seen of a major media organization actually coming to the defence of our "sport"!

I have not only read this but have also passed it higher up within where I work, they have been asking for more information for potential sponsorship, and so far this is one of the more accurate and honest reports I have found. Well done the BBC!

has anyone read the comments, its quite funny how little everyone knows about the sport

The article reads:-

"Is it harmful to run around the woods covering each other in goo?"

That isn't paintball, that's dogging.
