If the Dadaists had owned a projectile device for spewing color across cardboard canvases, the most renowned modern artists would be paintballers. For $25, today’s Groupon offers the inspired use of paint with a package that includes all-day entry, equipment, unlimited air, and 200 paintballs (additional paintballs must be purchased on-site) at Midway Paintball in Vacaville (a $50 value).

Open on weekends from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m., Midway Paintball contains several paint-by-numbers war zones designed for ducking, dodging, and hiding from the wrath of safety-minded paintballs picked from paintball bushes. Choose a field and hide behind a spread of obstacles as you and your rented shooter scurry to pepper the clothing of your opponents with various hues. Midway Paintball's fields are governed by judicious referees, who keep the high-velocity arts and crafts safe and fun.

Put down those berry-guns that frequently clog and permanently stain innocent frocks with stubborn jellies. Paintball is a safe exhibition in marking others, like any noble marine biologist pursuing the gray whale with a paintbrush.
