Kick-ass Chicks

Yesterday I went to see my friend Erica aka Tess D'urb-Evil, play with her team Chicks Ahoy! in the Toronto Roller Derby season opener, against the Gore Gore Roller Girls. It was a killer game, fast paced, high scoring, lots of hits, spills, curse words, and penalties. The Chicks prevailed in the end, woo hoo!

The halftime show featured the Cowgirl Choir. Unfortunately, I missed their whole set waiting in the bathroom line and then the beer line.

If you've never seen a roller derby game you NEED to go. Tickets are only $12 if you purchase in advance at an outlet (I recommend this rather than buying online bc if you have a paper ticket you don't have to wait in the super long line) There's beer and pizza for sale at the games, and you can bring your own chair or get there early and grab a seat on the bleachers.
