Saturday, February 23rd: Secretaries of Hate will wipe the floor of the DC Armory with the DC Demoncats! Be there for the first bout of the season. Chicks in fishnets on skates, knocking the crap out of each other AND BEER. More details as they come, but mark your calendars. Mods, feel free to move this to the social events thread, but it IS the off-season... Hopefully I'll have the new DC away jersey with my name and #135 on the back to represent us properly on wheels. Slugs & Kisses! -Mama Slambino
Re: O.T. DC Rollergirls at the Armory! This thread is fine here, we have one of our own. Mama Slambino, the Chino Alegria of the Roller Derby. I'm there fo sho
Re: O.T. DC Rollergirls at the Armory! Aw, shucks. Thanks, Chico! As I started to post earlier, bonus points for anyone showing up with a banner making reference to the Demoncats being bent over to take dictation from the Secretaries.
Re: O.T. DC Rollergirls at the Armory! I thought we can't be mean to other teams or they'll cry. Or kick our asses
Re: O.T. DC Rollergirls at the Armory! Oh HELL to the YEAH. I'm in town, so I am THERE. James too, oh and we'll get him good and drunk. Frog Boy too. Srdan, we must talk banners... I have ideas, BIG ideas.
Re: O.T. DC Rollergirls at the Armory! Oh man something to break up this boring winter!!! I can't wait!!!
Re: O.T. DC Rollergirls at the Armory! I've wanted to go to one of these forever, but haven't gotten the chance. I should be there for this one, though.
Re: O.T. DC Rollergirls at the Armory! I do believe I will have to clear the calendar for this. This brings back days of my youth watching the babes slam each other on TV. Good Stuff.
Re: O.T. DC Rollergirls at the Armory! Sounds like promising lyrics to a chant or song, if ya ask me. I'll work on it. BTW, what time should La Barra be there (you know we like to get warmed up!) GM
Re: O.T. DC Rollergirls at the Armory! How about this chant then song: [chant] H-A-T-E Hate, hate, hate!! Immediately followed by [to tune of 99 bottles of beer ]: Chicks in fishnets Chicks on skates, Knocking Knockers AND BEER. Will wipe the floor of the Ar-mo-ry with the De-mon-cats! [repeat] GM
Re: O.T. DC Rollergirls at the Armory! LOVE IT! Having so many Barra friends there is going to totally kick ass! Still waiting to hear about the time, but it's generally in the late afternoon/early evening. I'll let y'all know as soon as I hear.
Re: O.T. DC Rollergirls at the Armory! Doors open at 4pm. Bout starts at 5. If you wanna watch the ladies "stretch" be sure to get there early.
Re: O.T. DC Rollergirls at the Armory! What's the parking situation? Any lots open? Mebee we can scorch a few pre-stretch bacon dogs! GM
I know, I know... We always used Brown Paper Tickets, but we have to use Tixmaster at the Armory. I think the only way to avoid it is to buy them that day. We always sold out and turned away folks at the Sportplex, but that was a smaller arena...
I'll be there. Prior to our last trip to Columbus all I had were childhood memories of watching roller derby with my mom while dad was off in the Nam collecting Viet Cong souls. In Columbus there was some kind of regional derby battle going on with about six teams in the same hotel as the Barra expeditionary force. Everyone needs to support our badass amiga mamagambino!
Ok. I've got some firmer answers. Parking will be available across from the Armory in Lot 3. It should be open at least by 2pm. Tickets can be purchased at the Armory on the day of the Bout. These should be available by 2pm as well. Because Tixmaster (spit) had ridiculous charges, I'd recommend coming to get your tickets early and tailgating until the Bout. Most people are going this route. Avoid the lines.
