Crowd dissapointment
Being my first millenium and not passing the preliminaries I was quite excited to be able to see some of the CPL matches in real life. Me and my wife came just in time to see the last 3 rounds of the XSV (Paintoon) vs Shockwave game.
I think that was my greates dissapointment regarding the whole Madrid event, except of course my back player incurring a 3 for 1 busting our chances for playing Sunday
The debacle of fanboys screaming, whistling, counter coaching and generally being ****ing twats in order to sabotage for the players was quite unsportly and shocking for a gentle soul as mine. In between there where the few trying to do proper coaching and the atmosphare between these and the sabotaging fanboys seemed at best tense. Disgusting!
After the 3 rounds my wife and I had quite enough of pro paintball and we decided to leave. I seriously doubt this kind of spectator participation is going to do a world of good to promote paintball for the general public
I hope this was a one of incident and the rest of the matches was played with calmer public.
