Though the Red Menace lost, they played hard despite several injuries - they never gave up and kept fighting til the end. And the Jackies - well, they wiped the floor with some Cleveland! It was all so thrilling to watch. And what a fun after party at the Monkey Wrench! Really, it was an outstanding night all around.
So, as we all wait patiently for the next bout - The Thrilla in the Ville-a, another double header vs. Knoxville's Hard Knox Rollergirls, on Sunday August 12th at Treo (advance tickets now on sale! ) - in the mean time, you can hang out with all your favorite Derby City Rollergirls for the next two weekends in a row at some fabulous summertime events here in Louisville.
This Saturday (July 21st), DCRG will have a booth at Lebowski Fest , at the Garden Party (Executive Lawn), which starts at 4pm. Aside from the sale of our ever-coveted DCRG merch, rumor has it that the spanking/kissing/headlock booth will be back, and there might also be a return of the popular bowling-through-rollergirls'-legs! And who knows what else DCRG will come up with. Oh yeah, and there's lots of cool bands, toe-pops, white russian cupcakes, and more... all for $10. So come join us for some ridiculous Lebowski-themed fun!
Next weekend (Friday July 27th and Saturday July 28th), DCRG will be all over Forecastle Festival down on the Belvedere. DCRG will be staffing all the beer trucks, wine tents, and the VIP area, so be sure to tip your rollergirls generously when quenching your thirst! And of course, we'll have a booth selling our always-in-demand merch - t-shirts, tanks, stickers, patches, posters and more! You can get all the scoop on Forecastle on their website (link above).
And just to get you psyched up for the next bout, here's a sneak peak at the bout poster:
