Never seen a roller derby bout?

My sister played for a team in San Diego a couple years ago, before hurting her back. I think her name was Miss FortuneCookie, and the play maker on her team was Estrogen. Fun times going to those. We used to sit on the floor around the ring (played in a random warehouse) until one girl got knocked into the crowd and I saw her skate hit another girl in the mouth. Not a pretty sight.

Yeah, we call those the "suicide seats". The only buffer is the outer ring around the track reserved for the outside refs.
