Ok, now that I have a little time, I am going to take Kevincarpet's suggestion and make my own thread regarding my experience, since it was almost completely ignored in his thread. But I will add more detail of my recollections of that evening. Sort of a story, but I'll post it here in discussions, because I think it may spring some discussion.
Smack! is one of a few fetish ball events that occur around Halloween in New York. Really, these things happen all over the US and Europe. I am friends with Kevincarpet, and had hung with him before, did some public trampling outside, but what I really always wanted to go to a Goth event and get trampled by ladies with those big Goth boots. No chance of that outside, and little chance with professional dominas. I should have gone last year when I had a chance, but I made sure that I did it this year, and bought the ticket in advance. Initially, I thought I would meet with Kevin and Arthur Rugman (for those who don't know, he created the predecessor to these Daddo trample forums in the late 90's), but the event moved to Brooklyn at the last minute. They checked out the new place in advance, and decided based upon their long experience, that the bars were too short to do carpeting. In other words, people could not stand upon them and have their drinks comfortably without slumping over. So they instead opted to go to a lesbian event the the promoter invited them to. I couldn't just go to that event without an invite, I had bought my ticket, and I really wanted to be in a fetish scene, so off I went.
I just went in a pseudo pro-wrestler/luchador getup (no tights). I didn't carry a whole rug getup with me. I got there at about 9:30 not expecting very much. Not many people were there yet, but it somehow looked promising. There was a stage with some go-go dancers, all in those big boots I love. I recognized one from some Kevincarpet pictures - she was the girl with boots that had the boots "KILL" on top (pic 1 below). I chatted with her, and she was cool. I noticed one guy at the bottom of the front bar, that only sold beer, wrapped up in carpets like a cocoon. Nobody was standing on him for long periods. I went to him and asked if he was Kevin or Giorgio, and it was Giorgio. I noted that he was getting no action, but he stated that the night was young.
I hung around, got a drink, and chatted for a while with some of the people there. In the back, they had one of those X racks, so that people could get whipped. I thought it would be hopeful for later. I chatted with one Domina who said she would be up for some ball-busting later in the night. Another girl I met outside was keen on whipping me all over, but wanted into trample. So I had some of that action to get me warmed up...
When it got more crowded, I notice that Giorgio moved, and another rug appeared. This guy had a completely different protective get-up - big reddish cushy things that said "Welcome," and a thin rubber mat underneath them, and white gloves that said "step here." I personally liked his setup better than Giorgio's which seemed too padded and restrictive for me. Sure enough, some ladies got up on them - both of them. It was still early, but the fun began. I said hi the new guy, and he told me that his name was AJ - sure enough, he was AJJones of the famous Traffic Stop and Lawn Mower stories on the forum! I said that I was flapjak from MDFF, and he knew who I was immediately. I thought this was great!
I took out my camera, and decided to be the call guy for both Giorgio and Kevin. I didn't know that I was going to be trampled, but I thought, at least I could get some great pics, and help the "pros". I got to chat with dozens of ladies, and encouraged many of them who were at first hesitant to get up on the human rugs. It was pretty easy when they wanted to pose for pictures. I treated like the cool human beings that they are, with lots on encouragement and cheers. I also talked with the boyfriends and bonded a bit. I told them that I was a rug like those guys, and they could stop by on me for a "rug-less" experience if they wanted. Most were vanilla really, but they were at least S&M curious. But man, there were A LOT of hot women coming to this events, most in high-heeled boots, and others with the big Goth boots. The more they drank, the more curious they got. LOL I would get one up on G & AJ at the same time, then get the other two friends to get up at the same time for some pics. Then I some of the others I chatted with earlier would see what I was doing, and wanted to join in. I actually really enjoyed just taking the pictures and socializing- a bit of a blast in itself!
I also chatted with the waitresses. I fell in love with the one dancing on AJ in the pics below. She had such joy on her face when she marched all over him. I flirted with her and got more smiles, and she gave me a few kicks and pushed my head on the bar like a WWE Diva at one point, always laughing. I encourage everyone to give all the barmaids and the especially her great tips while they enjoyed their trample rides. I think the barmaids appreciated that.
But then I thought "hey, I could get on this action." I said to some of the women, "hey, can you take a picture of me next to him?" They were more than happy to oblige, AND they took their own pictures. A couple of those pics are below. What was great it that it was seamless - they saw that I was a pretty normal guy with a kink, and it was no big deal. I know that guys like Kevin and Giorgio want to be totally still and minimize interaction, but I love the interaction. In a fetish event, it almost felt natural, and I even got compliments that I was pretty cool. One girl said, "you don't have that creepy energy like some guys with kinks!" That just about made my evening right there!
Then, bad news hit. This bozo security guy told G and AJ to move out of there. AJ protested that they had permission from the promoter, but the guy said he didn't know anything about that, and they were allegedly blocking customers. Total b.s., but remember, this was not the original location of the party. So AJ knew the promoter, and we thought it best to straighten it out. In the meantime, no rug play. Giorgio knew one woman, got out of the rug, and did some boot worship service for her.
I got pissed off at one woman at this point. She was sitting down and talking to a friend. She seemed really full of herself. A sub guy came over, and meekly asked her if she would grant him the honor of worshiping her boots. She gave the poor guy an absolutely chilling stare of intolerance, something between shock and "go drop dead!" The guy crawled away in shame. I couldn't take it. I said to her, innocently, "what did that guy ask you?" as if I could be on her side. "I that creep loser wanted to worship my feet!" I said, "Oh, really, it that strange to you?" She looked at me incredulously. "Do you know what kind of party you are attending? Tell me, what kind? Right, a FETISH BALL. You have every right to say "no" to such a request - it is all a matter of your level of comfort. But this is the ONE kind of place that a guy like that should be made to feel like scum for asking to worship someone. Maybe you came to the wrong place, because there are a whole LOT of us here!" She girl looked taken aback. I was so pissed, and didn't want to ruin my evening, so I walked away.
I chatted with AJ for a while. What was cool is that we at a couple of points got some hand trample action from girls with big Goth boots we were talking with, and they thought it was funny - "that doesn't hurt?" We got whipped by my now pretty drunk friend from earlier. She seemed to want to get with me, but I thought better of it, and was glad I did, because fortunes changed. Permission was granted to carpet closer to the S&M area of the bar.
G & AJ set up again, and G got some action right away. AJ said that he needed his mat, but hold the spot. And hold the spot I did! I lay head-to-head with G, and went for it. Two girls in heels immediately got on my abs. AJ came back and laughed, "you've got no mat, you're gonna get FUCKED!" I said I didn't care. He immediately started taking his own pictures. One girl was not my chest, the other on my crotch - no problema!! They stayed there awhile, while they had drinks. I guess the advantages I had in that situation was 1) I was right next to the "dungeon" 2) I didn't have a mountain of rugs on me, so the girls could just stand normally and enjoy their drinks and 3) no rugs in this fetish party was a novelty. AJ helped bark up a little action for a few minutes, and took lots of pictures. He went off to find a spot for himself, since I didn't look like I was getting up for a while! He understood that this was my virgin voyage doing this thing, and he does this pretty regularly, so he was a true pal about it. I owe him a lunch or dinner next time!
All I can say is that I had the ideal conditions - right spot, right party, right time - so that I had almost non-stop continuous trample for about five hours, without rugs! G was literally tete a tete to me, so I got almost all the action that he did, as the women went back and forth. The difference was that I waved some women on, talked to boyfriends, and got, shall we just say, more sensual action by a couple of the women. Many women got on me with the urging to the boyfriends,” hey get on him, he liked when you step on him.” Some would bounce of jump on me with their heels or boots, and others just put their feet on me for victory poses, sometimes for pictures, etc. I was happy to see my favorite barmaid give me "tips" too by doing that dance I said I wanted with her - on top of my chest and face!
