My pal Sean invited me to join him this weekend to go see a roller derby game. I’ve heard about Pittsburgh Roller Derby a few times in the past, but never actually knew anything about it, so I did some research.
Actually, my friend Amber sent me a link to their site.

The first thing I noticed when I went to the site was that it was all female skaters, which is kinda cool. They look really tough. Some of them look cute, but most likely would beat the tar out of me.
Turns out, Pittsburgh has 4 teams that play against eachother, as well as a traveling team which…. well.. travels.
The site has allot of info about this crazy ordeal, as well as a gallery of bruises and broken bones which is kind of gross. Tickets to the games are more than I expected. Not that $10 before, and $15 at the door is high, but I expected it to be less. I’ll keep you updated if I end up going to the game this weekend.
Did you see Tara there? Her name is Via-lent and she’s part of the Bitch Doctors. haha Didn’t know if you knew that.
It’s not till this weekend so I haven’t gone yet crazy lady!
