I was thinking of trying something new and checking it out this weekend. Not sure what to expect but it looks like it would be fun to watch. Just curious if anybody has gone to a Roller Derby here in the Triangle before. Looks like the Carolina Girls will be taking on a team from San Francisco! If I do go, I will try and get some pictures and post them back here on the forum.

We went and had areally fun time people watching and watching the event. Ask one of the helpers (walking around in red slips the day I was there) to explain the rules to you so you can follow the action.

It's kind of like a hipster tractor pull or wrestling with way cuter outfits and without the Jerry Springerness. Really really wide variety of people in the crowd. Very loud.

We stumbled on a bout once when we were going to the Greek Festival at the Fairgrounds. We walked right in and watched for a while. It definitely looked like a fun time, with a variety of people and characters, and it was very loud just like witchseavey said!
