So....Saturday at Apocolypse 249.
Geared up, all the kids in the car and off we went. Used the wifes motor as it has more room for stuff.
All set up in the safe zone and safety brief done, we head out for the first game. Noticed there was lots of rentals but they were enthusiastic and ready to go.
10 shots in, i realise the AUG is not being as awesome as normal and is double feeding, resulting in "brewers droop". walk back and swap out to the M14- its first time on the field. Damn they're heavy things, aren't they? almost need a wheel barrow to push it around on!!
Blue team got destroyed on the first game, we needed coffee and bacon to regroup and get into the swing of it.
Coffee and bacon consumed and we were off again, some over complicated dead, fall back, this bit is yours, this bit is theirs, blah blah KILL REDS etc.
So we did. few non hit takers were introduced to the "I'm going to keep shooting until you actually call it" section of my brain, but otherwise a really good mix of maniacs and strategy users.
One guy had to be escorted off site due to being a complete bell end and i genuinely hope he had a car crash on his way home after non hit taking, losing his rag and turning the M4 around to use it like a cricket bat 🤯
I dunno. i don't understand it.
Went through more rounds than normal, but had a really great day, especially after the day at dogtag we had, the boys needed a good day to get their heads back into it. We did. Loved it.
So other than a poorly AUG and "angry man" we had a great day. Im back at work today and i ache like a bastard but hey. it was fun.
