And watched Kerry Leigh adorn Renaud's hair with clovers.
And waited for the few bats that stay for the winter to hold it down for the rest.
Renaud waited for the bats, too.
Then we went to the roller derby!!!!
The Austin Cherry Bombs vs. Las Putas Del fuego!!!!!
The ref hands out t-shirts between periods.
Halftime!!!!
Serious shit!!!!
In roller derby, the "jammer," or the girl with the star on her helmet, scores points by passing the pack, who are generally slower but tougher. In this photo, the putas del fuego jammer finds a jam of her own in the pack!!!!!
The Cherry Bombs jammer tells me how she feels about my presence on the rail!!!!!
The fans went crazy at this event, and I can assure you, they had a good reason why!!!!
4TH quarter penalty!!!!
Not for the squeamish!!!!!! Ultimately, Las Putas del Fuego won in overtime, with the crowd going wild and the Cherry Bombs protesting a questionable call. We went back to the hotel and watched what was left of the Oscars.
Us dumping Kerry Leigh at the greyhound station, 7:35 AM Monday 2-27.
And after a tender goodbye and a hearty breakfast, we said goodbye to Austin as well. This is the angle they showed when Bush stole the election in 2000. I hate this building.
