GOTCHA!

So I was walking across campus today and I had a funny experience. I overheard these two guys talking: boy 1-"yeah, I was like, is there a war going on?" boy 2-"well, yeah, there is." Now you might think they were talking about something in the world, not at all. I looked down at boy 2's hand, in which he had a yellow and red "gun." I'm not sure if it was a water gun or a paint ball gun, but it was held at the ready in his left hand and as they walked to me and past, boy 2 kept looking around and over his shoulder. I laughed once we got passed each other when I realized they were playing a game on campus that is like the movie from the 80s: Gotcha! For those of you who are too young or don't know it, it involves some students (I think high school) who are playing paint ball wars in the halls who get caught up in a situation of misunderstanding which ultimately lead to the students being mixed up in an international spy war with REAL guns. A totally campy 80s movie, but it was funny to see it play out on a campus so many years later.
