oh atlanta, you had so much potential....well we got educated on how older leagues play roller derby. it was quite a surprise, their pack managed to slow down to a crawl to get us out of play and then they would rush us when their jammer was coming through. though we lost, i did not sustain any damages save a very sore sternum. a nice can opener to the chest was blocked by my own arms which meant my wrist guard went into my sternum and left a deep bruise. this is me jamming while The Victator holds back Sk8 Outta Compton, at Atlanta blocker.
we stayed at the highland inn and wouldn't you know we were right next door to a vegetarian/vegan restaurant that i never got to go into because of scheduling conflicts. sheesh. atlanta is huge in comparison to memphis.
i won't say i would not like to return, it seemed like a fun place to visit. anyway, much respect to the Dirty South Roller Girls for showing us how its done. we just have to learn from the experience and get better than ever.
