THE BATTLE FOR SPIROS SPLEEN

    Story by Jonathan Foust:
Spiro Mamaligas, a
well-intentioned everyman, recently transplanted from the cold
impersonal west to the wild and wooly east, found himself irresistibly
peckish one fine Friday afternoon and was unavoidably drawn to a
rickety taco stand by the side of the road. A lingering doubt in a
stray corner of his mind screamed at him not to order the “Warm
Pork-a-rito,” but within young Spiro there had always resided a certain
sense of adventure—what the French would call a je no se quoi—and he
plunged in with both feet (and no shortage of incisors).

On the
long ride back to the sprawling Mamaligas estate, master Spiro sensed
that something was just not right. When he walked in the door our hero
was greeted by a look of horror from his lovely keeper, Karen. “You
don’t look so good,” she understated. Spiro had no choice but to flop
down on the couch and declare himself under the weather.

“SCRAMBLE!
SCRAMBLE! We’ve got a major emergency in section 187!” The sirens in
Immune System Command wailed like the unrevenged souls of the dead as
Number 1 sent out a mayday to all available white blood cells. “We have
a possible bacterial infestation in the stomach and it is threatening
to move. We’ve got to lock it down, NOW!”

In a dark part of the
cavernous Mamaligas digestive system, a twisted mound of masticated
pork began to quiver. A clenched fist broke through the surface and
reached skyward. Slowly a head and torso emerged from the darkness and
took in the surroundings. Two red eyes scanned the walls of the stomach
and perched above a wide spreading smile. “Perfect,” a raspy voice
declared.

Sal Monella placed two long fingers atop his thin lips
and whistled to an unseen accomplice. From all sides a host of henchmen
and lackeys exploded, taking over the stomach and setting up a
perimeter. “This is our new home, boys,” he said, “I think we’re going
to like it here.”

This is a 24 hour game held on October 15th
and 16th at Professor Lumpy's Paintball Academy(academypaintball.com)
in Smithfield, OH. Camping opens Friday night and there will be a free
BBQ on behalf of BC and their sponsors on Friday night. After the game
