| I am a registered lower class citizen, and find myself unable to afford paintball. However I love this sport, and am considering trying to go pro instead of going to college. What should I do? Are there any colleges that offer courses on paintball? |

You want to ditch your chance to get ahead in life to attempt to beat the million other people trying to go pro? Go to college.
Even if you make it to the pros, that wont last forever. You'll be right back to where you are now because you didnt go to college. ------------- A-5 E-Grip JCS Dual Trigger DOP X-CORE 8 stage x-chamber Lapco Bigshot 14" Beadblasted Optional setup: R/T Dead on Blade trigger |

yea dude if you dont go to college take how "low class" you are now and probably multiply it. go to college play a collage team or play paintball on the side i know that you can play at some places and they pay you to play like 4 times a week or something. so in conclusion go to college...get a job after college...then play paintball as a side thing dont make it your whole life ------------- 98% of ion owners think ions are better than any high end gun.

There are many other people out there trying to go pro as well and the chances of getting a tryout are pretty slim. Go to college, get a good education, and get a good job that can make you money. Maybe join a college paintball team and after college, start a team with some of your friends. Work hard in school cause that will get you through life. ------------- Pumpker'd; (V.)

since paintball isn't a varsity sport in college, you can still compete
in NPPl tournaments, get sponsorships, and the like, without losing
eligiblity EDIT: they have a website for all the colleges, but i lost the link ------------- Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo |
