Myself, M. and neighbor M. were down at the little league field having an airsoft war. One of the residents of the nearby trailer park, who was a little inebriated, called 911 saying, "there are a bunch of guys with machine guns on the roof of a building near my house."
So when M. said, "hey look there are a bunhc of cop cars talking to that guy", and neighbor M. said, "is that a police helicopter?" I knew it was time for me to see what was going on.
As I walked up to the window of the patrol car the first thing he said to me was "airsoft war?" and I said yes. He then rolled his eyes and called it in as a false alarm.
We didn't get yelled at, no one got in any trouble and it all worked out just fine. But our little game sure did attract some major attention for a little bit.
Basically the cops were happy with what I said, that all our guns had the bright orange tip, we all had eye protection, we were shooting biodegradable bb's, we would no longer climb on the roof and that we don't play there if there are other folks around.
