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.

Marv Glovinsky is a clinical psychologist. He says Hunting for Bambi is every man's fantasy come true: "You might think of all men as little boys who have never grown up, so they entertain their adolescent fantasies and they go through life being adolescents on the hunt."

But Glovinsky says this so called game that mixes violence with sexuality can be dangerous for men who can not distinguish fantasy from reality, and acting out the violence in this game could lead to them acting out real violence: "If you're blurring reality and fantasy and you can't make the distinction and you're emotions over power your intellect or your higher mental function, your going to get into trouble, and if you have a control problem to boot, that's really going to cause problems." Problems like beating, raping or even hunting women with a real gun.

Freud would say, "Sometimes shooting a naked girl in the butt is just shooting a naked girl in the butt."

That's really gotta sting!

Sounds like it would make a cool video game. There could be several permutations. Hunting for Bubba comes to mind.

For those who don't want to use weapons you could use a video cam.

I wonder if they use white paintballs. ;-)

they get paid $2,500 if they escape unscathed, and $1000 if they do get hit.

Where do I sign up? Well Ok I'm a guy...how about I sign Wife up? Nah she's too big a target....sigh.

Two observations:

First, you'd have to be a bona fide nutburger to want to do this.

Second, the closing of the article, But some say it's a game which may have consequences that go far beyond the playing field. really cranks my wagger. Any "reporter" who uses the phrase "but some say", should be stripped down naked and shot in the butt with a paintball gun.

Uh oh, my manhood is now in serous doubt, guess I'm going to have to pick up some Streisand and Garland records.
Hmmmm anyone know where "Cats" might be playing? I can't believe I've missed it!
Funny, I never realized before how tacky the clothes in my closet are!
And to think, I threw out my copy of "Macho Man" in the '80's, I blame Dr. Laura!
I guess it's time I pick up Hillary's book!

"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."

I would make the hunters go naked too, and let the women shoot back!

This hunt is degrading to all concerned (though I'd say more to the men than the woman). Not a surprise that it is actually happening in our degraded and still sinking culture.

Since it's all consensual, no self-respecting ideologue should have any problems when it devolves into the use of real ammo, either.



Relieve your boredom! Be jaded no longer! Tune in at 8 PM on Mega-Progressive Ideologue-TV for the weekly consensual pay-per-view presentation of Colossal Consensual Gladiatorial Combat to the Consensual Death For That Consensual Million Dollar Prize, where you, the consensual audience, get to vote electronically with a consensual thumbs up or a consensual thumbs down! Join in all the consensual fun, where only the consensual contestants consensually lose their unvalued, alienable lives! Laugh at the consensual death-throes! Joke at the consensual contortions! Bet on the consensual blood! Take a calloused, inured, and consensual stab for liberty!

I agree, if the tables were turned and it were women shooting at naked men I would also say those women would have issues as well. I could see some folks seeing this as some harmless, yet hilarious fun, but I have to think this is definitely going to attract some nut jobs in the long run. LOL, but hey this is America.

Foul. No fair hunting a baited field. You would have to have the sale several weeks in a row then not do it the day of the hunt.

Good point! Also note the line AFTER the shrink's quote:

"If you're blurring reality and fantasy and you can't make the distinction and you're emotions over power your intellect or your higher mental function, your going to get into trouble, and if you have a control problem to boot, that's really going to cause problems." Problems like beating, raping or even hunting women with a real gun.

"First, you'd have to be a bona fide nutburger to want to do this. "

Seems rather tame to me as compared to a bunch of drunk men galking and drooling over naked women dancing on a stage in a dark smutty bar room.

What's the difference?

I like looking at naked woman but never had the desire to shoot a paintball at one.

You ever get hit with a paintball on bare flesh? I can imagine how it would feel on the private bits, even for a woman.

These sickos probably aim for that too.

It's really not easy to understand a good part of humanity.
