I have a friend who does roller derby and it's actually a lot of fun once you understand how the scoring works. Going in, I thought that it was going to be the type of roller derby I saw on tv when I was young where it was basically WWF theatricality on skates. Clotheslines and bad makeup were a must with a side of hair pulling for good measure. So I was pleasantly surprised when witnessing the real deal Holyfield. The name that each skater adopts is what makes roller derby awesome though. Like Smashley Simpson, Happy Killmore, AC Slayer, AFROdite, Admiral Snackbar..etc. I'm out!
