‘Bout to open up a can of whoop ass.
Ahh, New Orleans.
The Big Easy Roller Girls have their own version of therunning of the bulls. In the Crescent City version, the bulls are the bad-ass chicks ofNew Orleans’ roller derby league. And they beat on the runners with wiffle ball bats. How awesome is that?
Scientists are still working on measuring the exact level of awesomeness.
I mean, fuck running in front of a bunch of cows. This is much better.
Hat tip to reader Hell Kat, who knows a thing or two about derby.
Well, that’s one to add to my Bucket List.
I missed it by a week…but I will be there on Saturday to participate in the Hula Hoop Parade! 🙂

I missed it since I go to sleep around 6am. Maybe next year. (and I’ll wear my skates)
BTW- Elspeth we must hook up next week. I think the house will be finished by then and you can hate me and my kitchen.
whiffle? what the fun of that? bring on the aluminum.
Pansypoo – they are saving the filled aluminum bats for when the rethugs come to town…or Nagin gets back from Panama…
Gentilly Girl you are ON! 🙂 I get in mid-day Thursday – as long as I don’t get lost! 🙂 I am staying at a BnB near Esplanade & Rampart. 🙂 I will e-mail you my telephone numbah. 🙂
Peace, Elspeth

Elspeth,
Damn, I could have set you up at Schiro’s or the Lion’s Den. Right now we are living about six blocks away from where you will be. Starlight time! Yes Ma’am!
Have a safe trip Darlin’.
Such a fantastic idea, I wish I’d thought of it.
And they got as much attendance as a bout gets!
