MN RollerGirls
April 18, 2006



Hard rocking, skirt tearing mayhem? Yeah, I'd say that pretty much sums up the Minnesota RollerGirls season climax. Too bad this was my first game, because I'm going to be jonesin' for these vixens-on-wheels all summer long.

This is a taste of the battle for 3rd place between Garda Belts and Atomic Bombshells. The main event followed, with the Rockits besting the Dagger Dolls.

The next RollerGirls event isn't a game, but the 2nd Annual Wheelie Awards sounds like a good time considering fans can vote for "RollerGirl You Most Want to Land in Your Lap."

I think I've said this before;
I've never thought about MN too much before,
but since watching this site fairly often,
it really seems like a strange and very
amazing/interesting place to live.

heh, thanks guys!

we are not so different, Eric.
for example, i grew up fishing for carp with my grandpa. we didn't have nothing to do with no carp caviar, though.

by the way - i ran out of battery power and tape so I hardly have any video of the actual championship faceoff. but it was even more rockin' if that's possible.

When I was just a little girl, I dreamed of strapping on knee pads and shoving other girls around while skating in circles. I really did!

Yeah. Minnesota is just so much cooler than I ever imagined.

That's great footage Chuck! The best I've seen in two seasons.

Glad you enjoyed the 'bout!

Thanks for the great video... to bad about the battery! Would have loved to see some of the championship. I'm impressed with quality you got considering the lighting; it's great!

FYI, the Wheelie Awards that you mentioned are now open for voting, so have at it!
