Down and derby: Rollergirls of Southern Indiana
Dylan
Rules in life:
• Don't tug on Superman's cape
• Don't spit into the wind
• Don't pull the mask off the old Lone Ranger
• Don't mess around with the Rollergirls of Southern Indiana
Seriously. These ladies are hell on wheels - four of them per boot, loud and menacing, and quite unlike those slick inline deals that belong somewhere other than the fierce stomping grounds of the re-emerging sport of roller derby.
That's right folks, roller derby. The kind of stuff that combines violence, strategy, skill and the fairer sex in a blur of furious action sure to entertain.
Where and when can you experience all the fun? At the Red vs. Blue Roller Derby Exhibition Bout, hosted by the Rollergirls of Southern Indiana on December 13. The eastside rink Skate World will be the arena; action starts at 7 p.m. and a mere $5 gets you in. Kids 5 and under get in for free.
