Bizarre Game Targets Women: Hunting for Bambi: Parts 1 & 2

Warning: The content and video in this story may be offensive to viewers.

(July 10) -- It's a new form of adult entertainment, and men are paying thousands of dollars to shoot naked women with paint ball guns. They're coming to Las Vegas to do it. This bizarre new sport has captured the attention of people around the world, but Channel 8 Eyewitness News reporter LuAnne Sorrell is the only person who has interviewed the game's founder.

George Evanthes has never been hunting. "Originally I'm from New York. What am I going to hunt? Squirrels? Someone's cats. Someone's dogs? I don't think so," said Evanthes. Now that he's living in Las Vegas , he's finally getting his chance to put on his camouflage, grab a rifle and pull the trigger, but what's in his scope may surprise you. He's not hunting ducks or even deer. He's hunting woman. Naked women.

"I've done this three times," says Nicole, one of the three women allowing themselves to be shot at. "I've done this seven times," says Skyler, another woman participating. "I've done it seven times," says Gidget the third woman.

Hunting for Bambi is the brain child of Michael Burdick. Men pay anywhere from $5000 to $10,000 for the chance to come to the middle of the desert to shoot what they call "Bambi's" with a paint ball gun. Burdick says men have come from as far away as Germany. The men get a video tape of their hunt to take home and show their friends.

Burdick says safety is a concern, but the women are not allowed to wear protective gear -- only tennis shoes. Today while the Eyewitness News cameras were rolling, one woman chose to wear bikini bottoms but normally all they wear is their birthday suits.

Burdick says hunters are told not shoot the women above the chest, but admits not all hunters follow the rules. "The main goal is to be true as true to nature as possible. I don't go deer hunting and see a deer with a football helmet on so I don't want to see one on my girl either," said Burdick.

The paint balls that come out of the guns travel at about 200 miles per hour. Getting hit with one stings even with clothes on, and when they hit bare flesh, they are powerful enough to draw blood.

Evanthes shot one of the women and says, "I got the one with the biggest rack."

Gidget is the one who took the paint ball shot to the rear. She says, "It hurt. It really hurt. I didn't think it was going to be that bad. When asked if she cried she says,"yeah, a little bit."

So why do women agree to strip down and run around the desert dodging paint balls? Nicole says it's good money. "I mean it's $2500 if you don't get hit. You try desperately not to and it's $1000 if you do, said Nicole.

Now both the men and women say this is all good, clean fun, but in Part 2 of this story, reporter LuAnne Sorrell spoke with a psychologist who says for some men playing out this sexual aggression may lead to other more violent acts against women.

You know it's coming .... real gladiators

Not really. But if it does there will no more be any inalienable rights.

[visualops]

My eyes! My eyes!!

LOL


Actually they should revise the game to mutual water balloon or food fights and it could get real interesting. Plus you could have a paying audience as well ;^)

[MightyMouseToSaveThe Day]

you don't know what to think? i do. I think it's perverse and sado-masochistic and misogynous.

My priorities are not askew, I'm being practical. It would be easier to teach women to respect themselves and not participate in such sordid events than it would be to convince men that they ought not to crave such things. In fact, I blame feminism for promulgating the wide-spread acceptance of women doing sleazy things. There was a time that we had such a thing as "shame" and "stigma." Men have always had biological urges toward sex and violence. It's nature.

But there was a time that a woman who would indulge men's desires in exchange for money, well, there was a name for it and everyone knew that it took place outside of decent society, and men knew better than to confuse women and ladies. This is what protected ladies. Feminists tore down that divide, now they complain that all women are subject to men's darker side. Now they complain "We Are All Bunnies." Well, yeah, Gloria... but you made it that way. Men were willing to respect any woman who demanded respect. Most still are, I suspect.

[chance33_98]

Just put up a rack of clothes with a sign saying "Big Sale 1/2 Off".

If they do this outside clarke county they could make it even more interesting. You bag em you bang em, you don't shoot em you don't get to. Just wait, give it about a year, and some rich guys from germany will be wanting that - where there's money and desire, there is a way...

[A_perfect_lady]

And just wait till one of these Bimbos gets a paintball to the temple and dies.

I was just reading 'Handwriting of God' last night, a travel journal from 1860 by a preacher from ohio/wv area. He went to egypt and the holy land and wrote a rather large tome about it. He remarked on several occassions about how women were thought of and treated in the muslim society, with regards to not being able to pray at mosques, etc. He referenced the US and western civilized nations and how they saw women as something all together different. Without dragging out all the details it was an amazing read into how our culture was back then, and his respect for women was evident in much of his writing. But perhaps most eveident was his underlying thoughts that people earned respect for themselves by their actions, not by their gender (or race).

Money has become, to some, more important than respect for themselves - or at least, perhaps, we have come to define respect for ourselves soley by how much money we accumulate. Alas, this whole thing is no different perhaps than those who do stupid human tricks for money, the freakshow has left the circus tent, one only has to read the news to discover that (or DU) :)

ps The Handwriting of God in Egypt, Sinai and the Holy Land by DA Randall (you can find cheaper copies ranging from $20 to $120 or more, circa 1862 print date). An amazing book that is very hard to put down.

As usual, you've nailed it! This one today, what's next? All I'm wondering is, how long before this becomes an urban challenge by people hunting babes in cities, sniping them with paintball guns and escaping ... with no cash to the victim from the perp? America hasn't learned the important lessons regarding tacit embrace of degeneracy. What is now a 'private sport' for financial pay will sliup into the libertine and infest the impressionable all too soon. I guarantee there will be a number of incidents as this 'sport' becomes popular ... so many who want to do this haven't the grands to pay so they will pick out non-consenting women and men to shoot at.

Now, where will we put the trigger locks? ... On the shooters or the potential victims? ... Ahh, the paint ball manufacturers making the little balls of paint!

[spoiler2]

To put this in perspective, let's say this organizer as mentioned in the article, chose to exploit needy BLACK men with the same agreement.

Whether the 'targets' were clothed or not, the shooters and organizer would probably be arrested and booked on the basis of racist behavior.

It's an obvious case of abuse of one segment of society against another.

So, where is NOW when you need them?

[kitkat]

I agree! I keep thinking of what my father would say if he were still alive. His respect for women served as a guideline for the entire family.

You're correct in saying that women (some, anyway) have brought this on themselves. But not all of us are involved in telling the world that we expect to be treated as unfeeling objects.

I'm not disagreeing with you, lady. I hope I'm adding to what you said.

We women are meant to work in tandem with men for our mutual good. Any man who shows such total disrespect for women is a blot on the name of real manhood.

LuAnne Sorrell spoke with a psychologist who says for some men playing out this sexual aggression may lead to other more violent acts against women.

Bah. If the roles were reversed and it was women shooting paintballs at naked men, that psychologist would undoubtedly deem the activity a "healthy outlet for women."

And they say the double standard only swings one way...

Excellent, chance

[Let's Roll]

"Let's ask ourselves what kind of woman submits to being part of this game?? Okay, whatever, nevermind."

And what kind of men hate women this much.

[kitkat]

***And what kind of men hate women this much.***

You saw through all the smoke and mirrors about sex, sport, etc. and went right to the heart of the matter.

[El Sordo]

Marv Glovinsky is a clinical psychologist. He says Hunting for Bambi is every man's fantasy come true:

I can say that it sure ain't mine.

But since mine invovles Zhang Ziyi, I am probably no one to talk....

[SauronOfMordor]

Let's ask ourselves what kind of woman submits to being part of this game?? Okay, whatever, nevermind.

The girl gets paid $2,500 is she avoids getting hit, $1,000 if she gets hit. You can find a lot of girls who will do that for $1,000

[HairOfTheDog]

Bizarre behavior..... from both sides of the paintball gun....

[KineticKitty]

"If the roles were reversed and it was women shooting paintballs at naked men, that psychologist would undoubtedly deem the activity a "healthy outlet for women."

And where do you get this? You have no real idea what that psychologist would really say. There are scores of women that would think if it were women shooting at naked men, they would have just as many issues as these men doing the shooting obviously have. (see post 37)

Just because you think someone else would condone it from the opposite sex doesn't make it anymore o.k., but in all fairness, no double standard was shown since you were actually quoting yourself.

Hey, California can't have all the fun!
Let's make this a nation-wide hunt.

We could show the politicians that gun control
means hitting your target.
