Re: [Virtual Eclipse] Electic Shock Tag (Was: Any VE games lately?)

A bunch of buddies and I played some Electro Shock Tag here in
Victoria, BC for a stag at a local Lazer Tag club we rented out for
the day. But it was electro shock tag with a twist: The electrodes
were hooked up to our testicles! It hurt at first, but a few rounds
(and rounds of beer later), we just didn't care anymore! Our balls
became numb (literally) to the pain! Despite some sore and throbbing
testicles, we came away from the experience with joyous memories that
will last a lifetime!
