hunger games on wheels

Monday, April 2nd, 2012

The countdown is on…

With 11 days remaining until the kick off of Alberta’s largest roller derby tournament, teams from around the province and beyond its borders are getting all fired up for Flat Track Fever!  Fishnets, tattoos, and quirky derby names, combined with finesse, strategy, and speed on eight wheels promise to make next weekend historically awesome!

Especially since it is an all ages show, both on and off the track.  That’s right; hot on the heels of the Hunger Games, Calgary’s own Youthanizers, with some other kids refusing to eat their dinners, are showing their mad derby skillz Friday night at 6 pm in some kid on kid scrimmages – to the death! More murderous minor action takes place on Saturday at 2:15 pm as the Greater Edmonton Rot’n Rollers take on the GTown Derby Bratz.

If you can’t bring yourself to beat your children, come watch them beat each other!!!

That’s right! Three female contestants from the crowd squared off during the break at the TD Garden in Boston to see who could give “Scorch” the best lap dance, as an arena full of parents and kids looked on. (more…)
