Co-Ed Roller Derby Game in Toronto!!!! July 23!

Hey New Pulp Followers!

I know I am supposed to share a little bit about me but I've been pretty busy lately. For those of you who don't know me, and that would be all of you, I am a rugby playing roller derby fanatic and a full time (theatre costumer) working girl.... you can call me eSkimo Jo and for now that's all you need to know.

So I will need to keep it short and sweet tonight, because I'm really on to spread the word about a roller derby event this Saturday! It will be the GTA Rollergirls' first ever co-ed scrimmage. Sure to live up to its name and the picture in the poster, Co-Ed Catastrophe will feature the graceful ladies of GTAR and the fumbling men of our league as well! There are also a few skaters from the 2 other roller derby leagues in Toronto (TORD and WEWRA). If you want to see spills, this is the game to watch. I've been spying on the boys of both teams and let's just say I've been practicing hopping so that they can't suicide dive and take me out!

Here are the deets:

Doors open at 6, game is at 7. Be early and watch the teams warm up, then you'll know which one you'll want to cheer on! Also you can snag the best seats or get your camp setup in the suicides (this is on the arena floor, so bring cushions/or camp chairs!)

$8 advance tickets are available in person at Red Tent Sisters and Way Cool Tattoos on Queen. To buy advance tickets online check out Brown Paper Tickets.

Tickets will be $10 at the door, so get em early and save! Kids under 12 get in for free.

We will be selling Mill St beer at the snack bar! So you can have a cold frosty while you watch these teams duke it out on the track.

Parking is FREE, but for those of you who want to ride the TTC to Ted Reeve Arena (175 Main St) just walk south from Main Street Subway Station. Or via the 506 Carlton Streetcar (get off at Gerrard and Main)!

Coming from further out of the GTA? You can take the GO train to Danforth Station! Walk south over the bridge!

Can't make it out to this bout? Check out the Chrome Mollys vs Peterborough Roller Derby August 12 at the same arena!

Want to give roller derby a try? Come out and talk to us after the games. Our next fresh meat intake is August 30th, we have spare gear to lend out and we'll help you get up to speed, no skating experience required!
