Rollergirls

Me, Bunny, Amy and our "found" friend, Steve from Boston waiting for the 17 bus to downtown to go the Northstar Rollergirls.

Steve was very friendly and really like to talk.  We were told to wear pink to chear on the Delta Delta Di team.  Our waitress from Old Chicago, Megan, plays on the Delta Delta Di team whose cheer is "Stinky Pinky."
 The rollergirls are in the Minneapois Convention Center.  The rink is simply marked off on the poured concrete floor.

When these girls hit the floor, it looks very painful.
As you can tell from this very blurry picture, we were on the floor in the very front.  We had been warned to bring cushions thank goodness.

We were seated on turn one. The refs were between us and the game.  Though a couple of times there were a few close calls.

It was tons of fun.  At the end of the match, we got to run up to the girls for their victory lap and exchange high fives with the competitors.
