Rockin' Cocks and RC Revolution at PTS in Aldie
This past Sunday a Rockin’ Cocks 3 man team traveled up to Aldie Virginia and met up with the RC Revolution to compete in the March 22nd PEV’s Tournament Series. The Rockin’ Cocks fielded O-face, Spoon and Frieda in the Novice division with sideline support from Wimpy and Carly. The RC Revolution fielded D-Kay, Cap’n, and it’s newest edition Brandon (cheesy nickname in the works) in the Rookie division. Slippy and Snax made an appearance to support their teams along with friends Will and Rusty who supported and played some rec ball with some pumps and bandannas.
The Rockin’ Cocks started strong with O-face pulling out a 1 v 2 for a win. The Cocks won the next game too, but even with some other great moments no more wins came down the pike. Nevertheless participants and onlookers demonstrated their appreciation and respect for the Rockin’ Cock pump game.
The RC Revolution came out blazing with a string of great wins. All players played tight and Cap’n earned his namesake with his commanding demands of ‘Get that guy out’. The Revolution deservedly made the finals but, because of the flukiness of paintball, finished 4th place. That ain’t bad at all.
After both teams finished their part in the tournament, they merged into the RC Army and headed to the rec fields. The following hour of paintball may very well be the most amusing hour I’ve ever witnessed. As a vacation from the competitive tournament paintball personality, the RC Army decided to work on their Swat tactical paintball techniques. Shouts of: ‘Attack formation delta!’, ‘Cover me while I clear the next target’, ‘REEEELOAAADIIIING!’, and the frequent ‘MOVE MOVE MOVE!’ could be heard across the field. Other than the ridiculous faux tactical jargon my personal favorite 3 moments from least to greatest:
3) O-face, Freida, Spoon and Carly pulling the synchronized barrel role from behind a log at the beginning of the game.
2) Slippy taking the field with a Squad buster grenade and 5 paintballs in his hand and immediately tying up the center 50 for about 5 minutes.
1) Frieda’s unforgettable commando crawl to the right 50 despite the grueling 10 minute effort… not to mention the fact that there was no possible enemy contact for the first 8 minutes. Thanks for that buddy.
As per usual, the Army joined for a meal before everyones respective journeys home. Great day of play all around.
