Mixed feeling about the roller girls
Went to the match with Central Coast yesterday.
You gotta luv vegas - next door to the roller hockey rink ...a wedding chapel !
I kinda expected a rink like what i saw in my youth in so cal watching late nite roller derby on channel 52 and either on kcop 13 or ktla 5 ( one of those ) - the rink had that embankment setup with a railing that inevitably you had one of the roller babes flying over the rail into the crowd !
And i kinda expected more violence - things like the rope line, the drop down elbow after someone fell to the ground and then of course, the grab each others hair and wrestle to the ground .... none of that.
The score keeping made no sense to me and do they really need as many refs as players ( ok not quite )
that being said - it was still entertaining ! And a great crowd watching with a great vbe. Not to sure about the " cheerleader " running around babbling on about who knows what. The halftime show was a dance gig that was pretty cool.
Would i go again ? Hell yeah !
