Jimmy's is the best because of the company!

Mad respect to Cyrus for sharing his faith publicly like that, and props to Marcello and Tyler for giving him room for that 👏👏

[@MattTheGymRat]

A true student of the game. Cyrus is a baller and some much fun to watch.

[@jeyn413]

Yo Cyrus, finally got out of paintball jail 😂

[@CyrusGarringer]

@@jeyn413 thank goodness haha

[@Shellda]

What an incredible show. The Fit Fam fan base is growing. They are so good for paintball. All wholesome individuals.

[@bear_mcculloch]

It’s interesting to see how legends responded to Cyrus in regards to people wanting his autograph-as they mentioned, this was a historical feat and the man now has his name stamped on the sport forever…he’s a rookie with a promising future, imagine if you were get your hands on Ollie’s jersey that he won his first World Cup in. Congratulations to you Cyrus and the PB Fit family, stoked to see what you all do as such a young team and how your story continues to unfold

[@LeadGenDataAgency]

Sounds like kyle spicka when he left everything in nc and went to socal. Just walked on and eventually ended up on aftermath and eventually dynasty. Pulled out wc a few years ago alongside Oliver. Passion

Speaking of comms...one of my favorite moments of the tournament was when Ronnie was at the dorito side 50 with Tyler in the corner behind him. Tyler is talking to Ronnie and there is no response. Tyler yells "Ronnie TALK!"

[@bandaidvr]

This was a great one, what a fast journey to rise through the ranks! Also shoutout to Paintball Playground, get on VR and spin some points from home

[@ericcallender1575]

Love this. Cyrus is one of the few guys I picked to succeed at Pro, Hoski is another. Congrats! I think one of the funniest things I have seen in 30 years of Paintball was Tyler Luckau calling Cyrus a goober.
