tournament tumble and pain.

IN a tournament a couple years ago the air horn went to start game. I knew where i had to go to get to my cover and i had to move fast. I ran real fast and tripped on a root. after flying though air mask flying off a smash my knee on a rock or a stick or somthing. I dragged my self to the cover keep in the game my leg was hurting. i tryed to bend my leg and could not do it becuase of a extreme pain and the feel my by bones grinding agained eachother. my dad ( on my team ) is a doctor ran over to me and relocated my kneeecap ( It was on the side of my leg) a huge gash about 0.5 inches wide and 3 inches long was on my knee cap. the ref came over and called the game over. many people stood above me looking at my knee you could see the white shine my my knee cap bone though the gash in my leg. I was then carryed out and brought to the hospital. this put me out of any physical game( paintball, hockey etc) for a while. The local paintball store told me that there sales in knee pads had sky-rocketed. This did not scare me away from paintball just the hard way to learn ( watch your ****ing step)

The store should sponsor you for free kneepads if you agree to do that every time sales go down. I was watching a higher division at the FSPL, this one guy messed up his knee and it had swolen up almost twice its regular size. He kept playing and kinda one leg hopped from bunker to bunker. Needless to say he played back after that.
