Per a post up on Tippmann's FB page, an Industry show is a hop/skip/jump from my domicile. But, just like SHOT Show (or any Industry show, I suppose) it's not open to the public.

So I let my paintball business license expire years ago... how do I go about gaining entry to this event then?

Bring Tallen along and bribe the folks at the door with gourmet food I can't pronounce?

Print up a pass card with MS Paint that flaunts my status as an [inactive] Tippmann Forum Moderator?

Put on a ridiculous wig, a more ridiculous fake beard, wear big Kim Jong Il sunglasses and wookie suit and say I'm Wayne Dollack?


Any other suggestions?

If anything, would be nice to meet some of the actual Tippmann folk. The only two Tippmann employees I've ever met were OMHW members, and neither has worked for Tippmann for a long while.

I'm going to assume this is like any other poll here.

Thus, my answer is "pie."

Any paintball stores in the area willing to let you buy a pass as an employee?

Hah, I vote for the Ms. Paint id badge. Let Ron know before hand and perhaps he might be able to hook you up with a pass.

Go look in dumpsters out back until you find a box that will fit on your shoulder.
 
Put box on shoulder.
 
Walk in like you are making a delivery, look people in the eye and keep moving.
 

Trust me, it works everytime! IF you have confidence, and act like you belong.

Coveralls and a large wrench will do it too. Nobody looks too closely at the maintenance guy.

County already said it was okay to say that we were reping for him. He just needs to print up something for us.
