pic: Karthik with a gun

Haha we were so glad they let us fire the cannon at GTR, when we were at the Wisconsin regional nothing was allowed to be thrown in the stands let alone fired out of a cannon at 40 psi! When we come to Atlanta we might bring our bigger three barrel cannons as well as the single fire cannon since the venue will be huge!

I hear that good old Queen Elizabeth escaped Karthik's wrath.....this year.

...anyone who's ever been to the Hershey Centre knows what I am talking aboot.

My favorite was when he got it on top of the VIP box!

Karthik told me his mom was in there. I hope he didn't get sent to his room for firing at her.

Yeah, I know 269 built a tshirt cannon last year and was firing it on Friday morning at Wisconsin but was told to get rid of it later. The reasoning was for the PVC air storage and how its not really pressure rated.

This may have been part of the issue. It sounds like they've totally banned all tshirt shooters now. Bummer. Between that and the free healthcare, I'm about ready to jump ship America!

Yeah but using all those "our"s in all your sentences will drive you right back.

Now this picture has better comedy potential!

Haha, my mother was seated just underneath the VIP boxes, but still within the firing path. She was less than impressed.

woops sorry about that karthik, i guess 50 psi was a little too much. i am sure it will do just fine for Georgia

[JakeC]

you will notice us in atlanta, the tshirt gun is now painted yellow and black and has a bright orange end, for safety of course!

Next time you (try to) give your mom a T-shirt, just hand it to her!

(Oh, and I think Dave underestimated the lethal ranges by an order of magnitude or so. Not to mention the fourth dimension.)

Easy, I heard a rumor Karthik is up to 12 pounds ... soaking wet.

Bahaha. I realize this is major thread revival, but I just noticed Karthik is pointing the tshirt cannon at my team
