| - Wanna see some girls skate around and push each other? The answer is, "of course."
Ok, so it may not be as fierce as Drew Barrymore would have you believe, but that still doesn't mean Sin City Roller Girls can't provide you with some high-quality entertainment. Located in the Riviera, you can sit back and watch some derby, grab some drinks, buy some badass t-shirts, win some cupcakes, and maybe even see radio personality Gonzo.
There are two bouts and each one is an hour long. I honestly didn't know a lot about derby when we went, but they have free pamphlets that explain the positions, rules, and referee signals. Within minutes I felt like I had a really good idea about what was happening.
The atmosphere is pretty chill and there seems to be lots of family and friends coming out to support the girls. There was even a large group of children running around and enjoying themselves. This is a safe atmosphere for parents, punks, rockabilly, and hipsters alike.
The only complaint I have is that the drinks are pretty standards prices ($6 well drinks) and the alcohol is nonexistent. I pretty much just drank a cup of cranberry juice while I was there. Get yourself a beer instead.
