Tag, you are it! A game we all play when we are children, so why not play as adults?
Last night I went with a few friends to play Laser tag. It was supposed to be a group of us and only 4 brave souls showed up to face our mission.
Our mission…..Strap on your vest, grab your laser, find your way in the dark maze, and shoot your opponents with the laser gun without getting shot at first. I have to say, with 4 people this proved to be much more challenging because you actually had to hunt for your opponents all in the dark with mirrors tricking you to almost shoot at yourself (I swear I only did it once….well maybe only once) while creepy music plays above you.
I was awful. Not because I can't aim worth beans…but because when you get shot, the laser vest vibrates which made me laugh uncontrollably giving my location away, which then led me to get shot again within minutes. It was so much fun, WAY better than paint ball (remember #15--OUCH).
So, I scored the lowest, but then again one of the players had military background---an unfair advantage!
It was so much fun though I really didn't care that I was doing so poorly, I loved the fact that I was laughing, really laughing, the kind of laughing that is the pure kid like joy. That is way better than winning, any day!
