&quot;Bambi&quot; hunt turns out to be a fraud. Support Apolyton, buy Civilization III: Complete

The much publized new Las Vegas attraction called the "Bambi Hunt" where men with paint ball guns get to chase around naked women trying to shoot them has turned out to be a fraud. The man who started the whole thing says it was all just a publicity stunt and he never meant to actually go through with it.

Anyone stupid enough to believe that that was real deserves a paintball shot to the head.

I'll admit, I thought it was credible.

Mainly because I do believe enough people are really that greedy, callous, stupid, desperate, depraved, and reckless for it to work.

Since there's a market for kidnapping kids to harvest their organs, this is pretty tame.

Well, this may be a fraud, but one of our local male DJs from Alice 106 running around in combat boots and a leopard thong, whilst getting shot at by ladies with paintball guns is most certainly real. Gee, I wonder where he got his inspiration from...

I must also say looking at the video (from the newscast- no, I didn't buy it )- it doesn't look like it was shot around Vegas. It looks too wooded. It is mostly desert around Vegas. though you can get some wooded areas around red rock canyon- those are rocky and hilly. In the Mt. Charleston area you can get some alpine woods, but that looks different.

I don't know where they shot the video. But they do have an office here in Vegas. And our mayor charged him with operating without the proper business license.

But I do believe this could be something that could be done outside the U.S. It is unlikely ever to happen in the U.S. because of litigation laws. It's just asking for a lawsuit.
