I have been dying to go to a Rat City Rollergirls bout for awhile now, so when the conversation came up between Megan, Eric W and me at work, I was more than happy to help organize a work party at the next bout!
We decided to sit in the Grave Danger cheering section as Molly (one of my co-workers) had been to a few bout's and she really liked the jammer for Grave Danger.
So, I told the crew to wear some red and black to support our cheering section, and Patsy did not disappoint!
We had 24 people in our group. Thanks for coming everyone!
Grave Danger beat the Derby Liberation Front 156 to 85. We were excited! Their jammer, ReanimatHER was awesome! By this time of the night, I was completely transfixed on all things derby - I love me some flat track!
Here's Grave Danger taking their victory lap and giving the DLF a "good game"
Megan, Myself and Eric W [aka: the Berginator]
Then the second bout started which was the Throttle Rockets and the Socket Wenches.
They both rocked some theatrics while the starting line up was being called out!
He was totally into the game - reasonably so!
This bout was much more physical and seemed to move more smoothly for some reason, maybe it's because I knew what I was watching by this point.
And the team I choose to cheer for, the Throttle Rockets beat the Sockit Wenches 116 to 76.
And then they took their victory lap :)
We had a great time - and if there's any where in Seattle you could feel comfortable wearing fishnet pantyhose it would be here at the Rat City Derby... so Megan and I did...
We Rocked it :)
And I am officially a Derby fan... Can't wait for their next bout!

I went to a slaughter county jam in bremerton, it wasn't near as fun as yours. they just broke up into teams and skated eachother.
