Heavily cultured on a literary diet of Ralph Waldo Emerson and the fine television personality of Bob Villa, it was only natural that Jonathan Press modeled a lifestyle reveling in such hick activities as tractor pull and coon herding. Having grown-up in the foothills of Wichita, Kansas, he was a naturally rugged individualist. At the tender age of seven however, Jonathan Press ("Peter Venkman") was introduced to the sport of paintball by a refugee group of immigrant laborers who worked for his estranged wife's sister's daughter's cowhand, thus changing his life forever. Likened at times to the elusive African Orangutan during mating season by the opposition, what he learned both on and off the field opened his eyes to the realization of a world beyond diesel-drenched tank tops and breath of cheap liquor. Arriving at The University of Chicago some years later with little more than the tattered clothing off his back and a fancy new computer affectionately named "Bertha", he quickly discovered an entire network of students who shared his similar interests in the sport of paintball. Today he is studying to become a professional economist.

A product of the plush suburbs of New Jersey, Lee Ting ("Winston") was shielded from much of the crustiness and riffraff of modern day society. Moved into military school at the age of 15, he traded-in the deliciously sugary taste of Hostess Fruit Pies and nice bath towels for a latrine that could be doubled as a quick alternative to the sink basin. From his outright fat glasses (thicker than the wavy glass they use for shower panes and the result of countless hours in front of the radiation box), together with a monster diet of running and hospital folds evolved a truck/man of untamed gyrations like an intellectual looking Bessie in her final stages of mad cow disease. It was between the morning plebe routine and the evening mess that he discovered paintball. Played in the deep hills of Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania, he found himself battling great floods and mudslides, missing the comfort of the Paramus mall and his Brookstone lumbar massager with each game. On several occasions, his pretty boy navigational skills landed his less than pretty boy face self into the path of such great adversaries as the disproportionally big headed son of Marc Schnider - famed morning television show personality. Four years of prep school later but nevertheless still quite industrious with the television remote finger, he moved to The University of Chicago where he was nearly killed by the second rate food service - what a weenie! He is currently engaged in the studies of macademics.

Son of a Houston oil giant, Eric Lee ("Ray Stantz") had all the makings of a typical notable where fast cars, wild celebrity women, and SAT prep courses were the mundane. Underneath the inflated nylon jacket and fast talk of our Vice-President however was nothing but a broken heart for the woman he loved and some real fancy sweaters. A less than worldly world traveler, this nevertheless fine individual was still very quick with the automobile. Having had to leave the war torn neighborhoods of Texas at an early age in order to seek the sanctity of London as the only Asian guy to inhabit this island of tiny retro cars, Eric knew a thing or two about flying too. With a look sharper than Spanish steel, his specialty was striking a quick pose under all lighting. It was in the deep jungles of Hyde Park that he discovered his real calling to ASU and the sport of paintballing. Wearing the finest Malaysian handiwork of artfully colorfed threads and moving with silky smooth fluidity in his track seasoned jungle prance, his styling ways were the envy of his opponents. He currently pumps iron and studies in his spare time. Did I mention his 20-inch biceps?

Born out of the shackles of Crooklyn, Texas, master rapper Chris "Puffy" Yang ("Egon Spengler") was noted by one teacher as, "I schooled him real good but he don't be learning no algebra here". Wild pursuits in a signature El Camino was like shooting dice to some Jimmy Bean and KFC for this young BG, and the rigors of daily life regulated him a steady flow of 5-0s and value packs. What he did for extra kicks was getting mad props lip-syncing homeys Black Street and Teddy in the halls of Central, and never once did he ever wash after using the bathroom. He and his homeboys were troubled kids where many simply figured them for dangerous minds lost to the hood where robbin', stealin', and reppin' their piece were the norm. Interestingly enough though, Puffy Yang's big break came after jacking some banker man for his pretty sneakers. Having had the insight to put some money into low-cap mutual funds when he was only eight, he finally decided that is was time to trade in his gat and big as heck Jnco pants for some university. Managing to draw on the money management skills of his youth trading in Betty Crocker points and fine German imports, Puffy eventually coughed up some bank and enrolled at The University of Chicago. Today he is just chillin' with his gangstas' and pimpin' his gangsta' lean as the Treasurer of ChIPS.
