Yea, things like World Cup are a huge cost. Still, there are a lot of really good fields around the midwest to dip the toes in for little to no cost. Most within a few hours drive time. I'm not sure what CPX is charging for vendor stuff now (probably a lot at Legends) but you also have Paintball Explosion, Ft Knox paintball in Indiana (great guys and a great field) Pekin Paintball downstate that runs some good tournaments Sudden Impact Paintball downstate that does some great events, Fox paintball which has always had ties to AGD, Xtreme Paintball further south that has some great folks, Wildcat paintball who has some great folks.....
I'm sure most of us around the area would be happy to help out and host a spot at a Big Game. Might not sell a lot, but it gets some buzz generated. Maybe.
Start with "AGD IS STILL HERE YOU GUYS!" and spin from there maybe.
Or not. Hell i dont know. You guys have me questioning everything i'm thinking now. lol
