Sometimes players who enjoy a lot of laser tag at a
particular arena develop an affinity for a particular pack. I've referred many
times to how when I played at Fun Junction I always considered Legend to be
"my pack". Of course towards the end when Razz took a liking to that
one I let him take it and I transitioned over to Rocket being my
new go-to. Strangely though I never felt that connection to any particular
pack at my home Force site. But when the opportunity to purchase one of the old
Gen 6 packs came up I had to give some thought to which one I would like to
claim as my own personal souvenir of the era when I played there prior to their
recent upgrade to Gen 8 Infinity packs. Incidentally, I am proud to say that
the Syracuse site was the third (or at least tied for third) site in the United
States to get the Gen 8 packs, so that's a big deal for us locally.
As for the Gen 6 packs, I'm appreciative that the owner
offered members the opportunity to acquire a piece of our local laser tag
history. These packs may not be anything particularly rare at this moment in
time, but they are special considering how many hours we've spent wearing them
on the weekends. Although I had no particular favorite, I figured a good choice
would be the Gecko pack (in homage to my little lizard Leon). But that one had
already been spoken for, so I thought about which other pack had some
significance. Even though I've joked about it I was NOT going to claim X-Ray
(it's Cody's favorite so I didn't want to be THAT person) so instead I asked
for Eliminator.
What's special about this one? Well, it was just randomly
grabbed to be the one that you see (through the magic of photography) in what one
site owner refers to as my "tag glamour shot" that can be found on
the home page of my website.
So, if I was going to pick one to keep I figured this was
a meaningful choice. I'm very appreciative that I was given a chance to add this to
my collection (which is miraculously growing in ways I never expected) and that
I will have such a cool souvenir of all those nights in Syracuse.
