Past the age of 7, where can you dress up (legitimately) in cameo, run around yelling orders at people while taking cover, use guns to shoot your opposition and cry when you get shot - without joining the army?
It's an ancient question, and it is solved quite simply with one word: Paintball. Its fun, its a good time, you get to shoot stuff and have a great day with your mates. The possibilities are endless with different scenarios and fields, and if there is someone you really don’t like, you can stick them on the other team and take a few shots at them without feeling too guilty.
While paintball has been used traditionally for corporate events to build a sense of "team dynamics" or "group cohesion", it's beginning to appeal to a much wider range of people. Together with more people taking it up, it seems in recent time there is an increasing number of places that offer paintball. As a result, prices are becoming much more competitive. Recently, I was offered a package for 10 people for $90 in total - granted there were a few extra add-ons; the price is much lower than i was a few years ago.
But always keep in mind, you get what you pay for. Going to dodgy-Joes paintball may mean serious injuries or in general a lower standard of entertainment. For something like paintball, you're better off with an established and well know facility.
Cue Action Paintball.
