The '''1997 NPPL Pittsburgh Open''' was a [[paintball]] tournament held in the Pittsburgh area of Pennsylvania during the [[National Professional Paintball League]]'s 1997 season. Contemporary footage produced by [[Traumahead Sportz]] documented professional ten-man competition, player interviews and the closing ceremonies.[1] Excerpts appeared in [[WARPIG]]'s [[PigTV]] programme ''I Left My Paint in San Francisco''.[1] == Competition coverage == Traumahead recorded on-field action from the tournament's professional ten-man games. WARPIG's programme description identifies these segments as excerpts from Traumahead's dedicated 1997 Pittsburgh tournament video.[1] The production also included player interviews and a tour of the [[Smart Parts]] factory.[1] == Equipment demonstrations == The tournament coverage included [[Bill Gardner]] demonstrating the [[Shocker]], described by WARPIG as an electropneumatic paintball marker.[1] Traumahead's Pittsburgh video also featured [[Bob Long]] showing his new [[Delta Defiant]] marker.[1] == Closing ceremonies == WARPIG's description of the closing-ceremony footage records an announcement by NPPL president [[Tom Cole]] that two teams were being penalised for game fixing. The description does not identify the teams or specify the penalties.[1] == See also == * [[National Professional Paintball League]] * [[1997 NPPL Las Vegas Desert Open]] * [[1997 NPPL Chicago Open]] * [[Traumahead Sportz]] * [[Paintball in the United States]] == References == # [https://www.warpig.com/pigtv/classics.shtml PigTV Classics β I Left My Paint in San Francisco], WARPIG.
