Our StoryKansas City's Underground Legend
How three partners turned a limestone mine into the world's only underground cave paintball park — and kept it running for over 30 years.
How Jaegers Started
Dear Reader,
In case you were wondering about JAEGERS Paintball, here's a brief history on how we have built this unique business.
In the summer of 1993, three partners started looking for underground space to play paintball in — and a limestone mine fit the bill. After a month or more of visiting around 2 dozen mines across the area, one of the partners ran an ad in the Kansas City Star newspaper stating that we were looking for cave space, and we found the future home of JAEGERS Subsurface Paintball.
After a lot of physical work and the unique challenge of explaining what paintball was to insurance companies, government officials, and other businesses, we opened our doors on Saturday, December 3rd, 1994.
The novelty and uniqueness of the cave brought in a lot of customers; however, it has been our focus on safety, customer service, and quality principles that has made JAEGERS Subsurface Paintball the first and only underground paintball field in the world and a growing business for over 30 years.
We thank all our past and current customers for choosing JAEGERS Paintball.
