I really think as the millenium dome never had a use to it and now its for sale it should be set up as a giant hyperball arena , including small speedball areas and some dodgy fake trees for a bito' rec-ball. Tell me what u think and maybe if we get enough ballers to say so it might happen!!!

Well it's supposed to be going to be used for concerts and sporting events, so I see no reason why one of those sporting events shouldn't be paintball. Can't see them installing a hyperball field as they are a bit too permanent, but I've always thought it would make a great venue for sup'air.

Another place that looks like it could be quite fun for a tourney is the old Battersea Power Station, now disused.

Maybe we could all club together...

If we all save our loose change, buttons and bits of fluff maybe we'll have enough money to buy it one day and dedicate it to paintball and paintball only !! None of this athletics, football, musical, piano concerto rubbish.

Um thats the TATE MODERN art gallery, don't think they would let us play PB amongst all the unmade beds and decomposing cows.

No, no, no, the Tate Modern was a different power station further east, near Blackfriars. I pass the Battersea station every day on the train going into Victoria for work. It's completely empty with no roof over the centre part of it, with a massive car parking area just outside & near the Dogs Home. For some strange reason, there seems to be a helicopter landed in this car park about once a week.

I heard that the dome had been given away to some company for free - as long as the government get a cut of any profits that arise from concerts/tradeshows, whatever the company decides to do with it - dammit, dammit! We could've done that! If only the had told us....:rolleyes:
