Super Friendly staff besides the main guy behind the counter (John in the red shirt)... could hear him yelling at little kids during orientation and just being flat out rude to some. I was sitting at my table with my kid and could hear John getting frustrated during the orientation which made us wonder why is he in the customer service business if he does not have patience for his customers...

Tired of hibernating in my apartment, I decided that some paintball therapy was in order this…read moreweekend. So glad I found Air Assault. This huge indoor facility must have opened recently, because I would've noticed it sooner otherwise. Conveniently located just a few blocks from the heart of downtown St. Paul this place is just a short drive for me. I went on my own on a Saturday afternoon and found just a single group playing. The staff was quite helpful and quickly got me setup and a rundown of the basics, then grouped me with the rest of the paintballers. I lucked out - the whole day stayed quiet, but I was still able to meet lots of great people, from age 12 to 40. If you need to get out of the house, it's hard to beat running around a huge course, diving behind inflatable barriers and shooting a bunch of people you just met. If I had been able to enjoy the fun for a little less $$ then this would be a 5 star for sure!

The guy wearing Aaron's Jersey was allowed to continue participating in the Halloween Paintball Event. The refs were very slow to intervene in such a critical situation.

Also, gun owner sessions last 2 hours; in my opinion, that's not quite enough time for the number of people having to take turns playing on the one field. I love paintball and want to see the more serious players able to find fields that can provide an environment to allow players to get to that next level while still being a positive space for the newcomers. This field just isn't quite that for me. I would love to change the rating entirely if I see improvement from Splatball. Thanks for your time, get out and ball!

Looking for some paintball fun? Give MN Pro Paintball a try. I went here with a small group for a…read morefew hours of paintball. Previously before here the only other place I have played at was Combat Zone in Hinckley which is super fun but very run down so that is what I had to compare this to. This is much more kept up with plenty of picnic tables setup to accommodate our group size which was around a dozen or so. I am just a recreational player so I am basing my review from as such. Things I liked You can do all your waiver stuff online before you even get here, making checking in much faster and easier so you can get to playing. Getting a gross, sweaty rental mask just doesn't sound that great so it's nice it's worth the extra price to have your own mask. You also refill your own air tanks whenever you need it so you don't have to stand in line to get a tank swapped or filled. Lots of tables for you to spread your stuff out on and everyone in your group. Your group is assigned your own referee for the day. Course selection, having multiple courses to play keep it exciting. They have plenty of bottled water for sale which it's important to stay hydrated. Overall it was a good time, the courses are fun & staff was friendly. Paintballs are sold by the bag of 500 so if you go nuts shooting you can run up a decent size tab quickly. The time went pretty quick when I was there, I wish we would have been able to get a few more rounds in but the ref for very insistent pretty much down to the minute about being done once our time expired with no options for continuing play. I also wish they had some food, so plan on bringing all your own stuff to eat as they don't even have snacks in between matches. Overall a good time playing paintball & I would return.

I freaking love this place! I have come here probably 8-10 times over the last couple years and…read morethey just keep getting better. I have brought probably 5-6 people here for their first experience and it has ALWAYS resulted in them coming back for a second time. The refs are a bunch of high school kids who love the sport and are learning how their first work experience goes. They do a great job and are learning so feel free to give them feedback. They have ALWAYS been open to banter and feedback to make the experience better. I will absolutely be coming back again and will continue bringing new people with me because you will go once and DEFINITELY be hooked to come a 2nd or 3rd time for sure. With regards to the guy who left the 1-Star review, take note, GroupOn Crybaby AND that guy got on Yelp to leave 1 review in his/her entire career... Whatever happened, it was years ago. They have got a great product now and definitely deserve your business! Have a ton of fun and tell them the JOSH's review on Yelp is what did the trick. They will laugh. Bring a friend!

I called about five times with questions and the same mellow guy, I think it was Jeff, answered and…read morecalmly helped me out. This place is run by very calm and straightforward country people. My son wanted to go here for his 13th birthday party, so we drove with five other friends for their $250 package. They had a blast! They were outfitted with vests, full face masks, guns, and unlimited ammo for airsoft (basically plastic BBs). They were given a full safety briefing which was basically: don't take your mask off we don't want you to lose your eyes and keep the safety thing on the gun when you're off the field. They had a variety of games they played with them, capture the flag and I don't know what all. Jeff told me they would play a different game every 15 minutes for two hours. There were different fields they lead them to with different bunkers and things to hide under. Jeff stayed with them the whole time and gave them pointers and refilled their ammo. We had the field reserved from 1 to 3, but they didn't come ambling back till 3:15. The place I stayed at had a picnic table outside, picnic table inside the shelter, over the top of the picnic table outside was a military tarp, grill, heaters inside the shelter, and Porta potty's. The only thing I would recommend is bringing your own hand sanitizer and I was really glad I brought a jug of water to wash hands and wash the mud off. It was very muddy, don't bring pretty shoes! My map app brought me straight to the place which is basically off a dirt road into some farm's driveway, behind their house, and you keep going until you see military transport vehicles and then just park on the grass. Don't get there early like we did because there are no bathrooms or shelter. You drive in the military transport to the middle of the woods and there they have a little shelter with the guns, masks, ammo and that's where you pay at the end. They also had some food and drinks but he didn't even offer them to our kids, maybe because we had brought our own food and drinks? Overall, highly recommended, well run place. I almost wish wish the sixth guy hadn't been able to come and I would have been forced to take his place. Next time!
