Sheriff Mark Lamb

I'm sure internally she probably is angry, but she's a supporter.

Right on, man.

So we did that.

Then Walmart comes into town and overnight killed my business.

How so?

Well, the internet was on the rise because this was like in 2003.

So the internet sales were rising.

And so was Walmart starting to carry paintball stuff.

And so immediately, you know, like Walmart doesn't have the same markups that I have.

And the internet, same thing.

They didn't have the same markups.

And so it really just kind of killed my sales overnight.

And we were at a point where you just couldn't sustain yourself with multiple bad months.

Um, ultimately I had to protect my brother who was kind of an investor with me.

I had to declare a chapter, uh, 13 bankruptcy.

Oh man.

And the problem with 13, if you don't know, 13 is you, you pay back your debts.

I had $17,000 in debt.

When I went into bankruptcy court, it was one of the most, to be able to go to bankruptcy court was one of the worst things.

We had a van and the van had the week that I paid the van off.
