My dad says he used to raise his gun to his shoulder (with the hopper just barely resting on top of it) and stand up in the middle of a firefight.  Without saying anything, (out, hit, etc.) he'd walk right past the opposing team.  Thinking he's out, they wouldn't shoot him, and he would get about ten feet past them and turn around and promptly shoot them all.  Is this legal at most fields?

It probably isnt legal now, you shouldn't risk it.

With the way people act act games, you might get kicked out if they complain.

I belive its legal, if the other team lets this happen there stupid, but if there smart they'll paint you up regardless.

It's called a "Dead Mans Walk" It is legal in most events unless otherwise stated. The only time it isn't legal is if you say you're out, hit or whatever or put in your barrel plug.

One thing I like to do is pick up all your pods and hold them in your arms...if the other team yells that you don't have your barrel plug in say you can't because your hands are full (which is true) walk by and then shoot.

The only time the other team gets mad is because they were gullable enough to let it happen. Usually they will light you up if you don't have your hand on your head or barrel plug in but it's a great move if you can get away with it.

Go for it.
Give me an inch, I'll give you a bruise.

Yep, the Dead Man's Walk used to be a popular trick a few years back. I don't think it's illegal, but few people would fall for it nowadays, especially since a plug in the barrel is a sure sign that the player is out.

No one puts their plug in until after they've gotten off the feild anyways.

If I could make it LOOK like I'm out without technically doing anything that offically means I'm out I could probably get away with it at the place where I paintball.

Ive read bout the Dead Man Walking trick in a book at Barnes & Nobles and I was wondering do people actually still use it?

I doubt it happens too often now. Too many people know about it now. As you said, it was published in a book, probably tales of the Dead Man's Walk all thru the internet as well.

in most fields he'd be covered in paint before he could walk 3 feet
