hmm your saying that golf is a rich man’s sport because you pay a lot for it.

but is paintball a rich man’s sport? (yes, we’re considering paintball a sport for the sake of argument). A good marker costs around $300+, full jerseys cost $100+, and the paintballs themselves cost around $50 - $200 for a good amount that will last you and your friends a day (if your playing speedball). Then you have to pay for any upgrades, replacements, and installations.

EDIT:
hmm, then again, maybe you do need to be rich to play.
