    Default Roller Derby!!!

    Anybody else ever been? My wife and I went to our first Roller Derby in Austin, TX. It was awesome. The one in Austin is on a banked track, but the one here in CO is a flat track. Not quite as fun, but still pretty cool.

    Saturday night was a double-header. The first bout was the Pikes Peak All-Stars vs the Sin City Rollers (Las Vegas, NV team). The second bout was the Pikes Peak Slamazons vs the Denver team the Wreckin' Roller Rebels. The Springs Teams won both bouts.

    (Sorry for the crappy cellphone pics)











    Some of the names of the girls:

    Blunder Woman
    Coffin Candy
    Ms Stress
    Satan's Barbie
    Fanny Fister
    Slaughter than Hell
    DisloKate
    Janesaw Massacre
    Susan B. Bruisin'
    Kyle

    Girlscouts? Hmmm, I don't know... I think it's kinda dangerous to teach young girls self esteem and leadership skills.

    A girl I went to HS with is a roller derby girl now I guess. Haven't been to any of her matches though.

    I always wanted to go but have yet to make it. Is it "real" or more like WWE and scripted?

    No it's real. It's just like any other sport: there's rules, strategies, each person on the team has a position, etc. If you've never been before, it will probably take you about half a bout to get the idea of how it's played. But once you understand it, it's pretty fun to watch.

    Yeah there were three girls that were injured on Saturday. 2 of them "looked" minor, the third one we could hear crying. She hurt her knee, and it looked pretty painful.
