I'd really get into this. A few guys at "S4" were talking about playing in a mental hospital last night. I was really interested.

Chesty, if you can secure that? I'd pay for that game. Plenty.

We could play in Atchison! There's rarely anyone in most of the buildings there. I specifically know of an old school building. Problem is, Atchison happens to be in Kansas.

Abandoned buildings are not all they are cracked up to be, sometimes they are just dangerous. Sometimes an event promoter throws an insane price tag on an event just because it's in a cool location - but because they've hardly been there you end up in bottlenecks for the entire game thanks to poor planning. Just because it's a cool place to play doesn't mean you can throw 200 people at it all call it done.

Playing airsoft in abandoned buildings that most likely have structural damage and meth addicts living in them.

Seems legit

I think that's US Bank tower...
I do hope that after all this discreditable shuffling we may be taken into action. It has a wonderful way of reconciling a man with himself: and with everybody else, sometimes. - 1st Lt. James Dillon

I'm guessing this is the feeling from the "Missile Base" game.

I did some research, and there a whole abandon housing development at Fort Ord California. Some of you might recolonize it from Mythbusters. If I'm right you could play airsoft there being its public land according to the article below.

Oh... I didn't know that. I just Google abandoned building, and Fort Ord was one of the place that came up. When people to play there to they use the whole neighborhood, or just a certain part of it like one street.

Ha. If only it were that easy. You gotta Google the old fashioned way, drive around and find places. Look up phone numbers and make phone calls. Hope you can figure out who owns it and hope they answer their phone, if they do, hope they say "yes" when you ask if you can host an event there.
