With October just around the corner and a lot of derby-related action on
the way, the Rogue Rollergirls can be found all over the place this weekend!
Luckily, I'm here to provide you with the inside scoop on where to find them!
Friday, Oct. 2 is the opening night of Drew Barrymore's directorial debut
film Whip It! This movie is about how finding roller derby changes the life of
one small-town Texas teen. As the wild world of roller derby is near and dear
to the heart of every Rogue, you'll be sure to find a bunch of them at Carmike
Cinemas
in the
Market
Fair Mall
on Skibo
Road on
opening
night.
Look
for them
lingering
around
in their
Rogue
shirts.
Keep your
eyes on
the Web
site (www.
myspace.com/roguerollergirls) for details on when they'll be there.
If you enjoyed the movie and would like to see some live roller derby action
right here in Fayetteville, just approach one of the Rollergirls, as they will surely
have tickets for our upcoming bout for sale! Even if you didn't enjoy the movie,
you should approach one of the girls and give them a chance to show you how
awesome derby really is.
Following their night at the movies,
some of the Rogues will be swinging by
one of their favorite hangouts — Paddy's
Irish Pub on Raeford Road — for a night
of fun and derby merriment. Come out
and join them as they dance the night
away, to the vocal stylings of Paddy, in
true derby fashion.
Performance Tattoo, one of Rogue's
newest friends, will host the grand open-
ing on Saturday, Oct. 3 on Yadkin Road.
You'll find your Rogues there from 2 p.m.
until the party is over. They will have their
own booth set up where you can purchase
merchandise and tickets to the next night's
bout.
Come join the Rogue Rollergirls on Sunday, Oct. 4 at the Round-A-Bout
Skate Rink, off Bragg Boulevard, in the Eutaw Shopping Center. You will see
the debut of Rogue's new home teams in action as the Homewreckers face off
against the Ritzy Rollers. The doors will open at 4:30 p.m., and the match will
begin promptly at 5 p.m. You can get your tickets in advance from one of your
favorite Rollergirls, or at Edward McKay's on Bragg Boulevard.
Tickets are $10 for adults and $6 for children ages 8 –
15. Children 7 and under get in free!
Hope to see you there!
