Three weeks ago, peashooting athletes met in Witcham, UK to battle for the championship:
The crowd at Saturday's World Peashooting Championship looked on in wonder as George, 58, the sport's reigning superstar, languidly lowered his laser-guided shooter. This was no kiddie toy. This was a weapon of mass peastruction.
In an age of advanced ballistics, it's tempting to scoff at the humble peashooter – essentially a lung-powered piece of pipe – but technology prospers in improbable places, and there was enough of it at Witcham, Cambridgeshire, to impress the Pentagon.

I'm surprised the UK Health and Safety Executive hasn't banned them for "possible ocular expulsion." It's all fun and games until someone puts an eye out...

You might take a bullet for someone else, but you can't take a pea for them.

So they're calling bong design "pea shooting" these days eh?
