Maybe you're their biggest fan. Maybe you've never been to a bout before. Or, maybe you're not even sure what Roller Derby is... whichever of these you are, you won't want to miss tomorrow night's action as the Derby City Roller Girls take on the Bleeding Heartland Roller Girls at 6 pm at the Manslick Rollerdome (721 Gagel Ave).
Known as "Louisville's Other Derby", these Roller Girls are riding into tomorrow night's bout undefeated for the season at 3-0. With only six regular home appearances, you won't want to miss a second of the thrills that accompany this group of girls.
"It's like a lot of other sports in that it is exciting and has a competitive edge," Holly Smeltzer, Roller Girl Rookie/Boot Camper, explains. "But at the same time, it's also very unique from a fan perspective as far as the entertainment. The fans are eclectic, the energy is fun and crazy and it's really just a one-of-a-kind experience."
For this family-friendly event, the general admission pre-sale is $9 a ticket online, with an $11 cost at the door. Doors will open at 6 with the actual bout starting at 7 pm.
"You'll want to get there early," Smeltzer suggests. "The seating is first come, first sit, so you'll want to get close and get a good seat!"
