18:Gel Tag San Diego | El Cajon | Uses GellyBall Blasters. GellyBall Blasters shoot a soft gel ball, much like an Orbeez that your kids probably already play with! Shot from easy-to-use Blasters, the soft GellyBalls bounce off kids or simply disintegrate, leaving no stain, mess and very little sting. Unlike Nerf guns, where the players have to constantly reload with ammo off the floor, a GellyBall Blaster holds 750 shots without reloading! Just pull the trigger and they shoot! Easy even for 5 year old kids to use! | ||
