What stops me from attending events is not having a car. LOL.

Attending events no, sometimes the event is canceled due to rain. Otherwise its high winds and ice that might stop me, but thats more road hazard related.

Oregon Coast rains so often most Oregonians don't own umbrellas, we grew up in the rain. It weirds me out when its not raining during fall up until summer.

Yes, but not because I'm a cute kitty. Fogging is worst during rain. If I can't see it makes it really not much fun. I prefer cold days with minimum humidity.

In the rain / storm its cool cause you don't really have to worry about the noise you may make while walking thru the brush. How ever fogging goggles is a BIG pain in the butt.. I'll play in any thing except ice.....

HELL NO! Not having a license to drive. THAT is what holds me back.

In a word, no. In two words, hell no. And I would most assuredly make fun of my runnin' buddy, Hard Drive, if he backed out because of rain.

Reply my guys dont' stop on account from whats falling from the sky. Although playing airsoft in a hail storm was and interesting experience. We just voted the big guy upstairs won and we would wait his sky cannon to finish. But back to the question rain no. The only that stops me is wind.
I can't outrun the bullet. So I might as well stay to face it.

Climate and weather patterns are non-existent on the field.

That is all I have to say.

Rain doesn't stop me, the only thing that stops me is Family, work or other real life obligations
