Derby Diary
Joined CRG: 02/16/04
Debut: My first bout was as a Black Widow, in November of 2004, I believe...
Teams Played For: Black Widows, Debutante Brawlers, Trauma Queens and the CRG All-Stars (interleague team). I also guest-skated for Cape Fear's ConVixens and the Palmetto State Rollergirls.Rollergirls.
Why I Became Involved: I *ALWAYS* wanted to play rollerderby and I've loved skating ever since I was young. Thank God Celia Fate gave me the opportunity to skate with the CRG; it has been a wonderful ride!
Why I Skate: Because I should have been born with wheels attached to my feet.
Embarrasing Moment: When my skirt was yanked down in a bout at Dust Devil '06. Roxy was doing a hip-whip off of me which caused the clothing malfunction.
Favorite Derby Memory: There are SOOO many! I've enjoyed traveling to places I never would have been to otherwise, and skating with wonderful ladies all over the US (Texas, Sin City, Dominion and Cape Fear being a few of my favorites).
Likes: Beards, sweat and sweet tea
Dislikes: People that don't like metal
Derby Heroes: Celia Fate, Militia, and Major (CRG), Julie Jawbreaker (BERG), Hydra (TX), Ivanna Spankin and Trish the Dish (Sin City), Crash Nasty (CFRG) and Punk Blocker (Palmetto).
Inspiration For Name: My favorite band, of course!
