Dragon Man’s: An Awesome, Redneck 50th Birthday

The guns are real...and the name on the target is Obama

The guns are all real...and the name on the target is Obama...it's pretty typical I guess

On July 31, my Dad celebrated his 50th birthday. Since he is “the boss” around the workplace, my Mom decided to get all of his co-workers and employees in on Birthday Paintball Tournament. After all, who wouldn’t want to skip work and shoot at their boss?
So we scheduled ourselves in at this paintball field way out on the east part of town called “Dragon Man’s”. Now, if you live in Colorado Springs and have never heard of Dragon Man, you’re kind of dumb. He’s an ex-military man who has one of the largest weapon and armored vehicle collections in the region.

We finally arrived at this place after driving about halfway to Kansas (just kidding, but seriously…) Pictured above is what the inside of his little business shack looks like. It was pretty awesome, seeing all of those weapons in one place. If there is ever a nuclear war, the first place I’m going to is the bank. The second place is Dragon Man’s.

The only problem I had with this place was the target with Obama’s name and caricature on it. I’m not sure if that constitutes a legal death threat, but it kind of offended me. Then again, who is going to burst in there and arrest the guy? He’s got enough weapons and armor for Colorado to successfully secede from the Union. Typically redneck. But the guns were sweet!

The whole experience was awesome, with the exception of me getting shot in the head 5 times!
