256! Grease Monkey Derby Bout


It was disconcerting to drive up and see an ambulance parked in front of the facility. . .we decided it must be there just in case.  But then we saw a couple paramedics running out of the building and climbing in.  Yikes.  Evidently however their presence was connected with the pole vaulting practice that was going on inside.  (The pole vaulter boys looked a bit distracted . . .all those girls skating around on the other side of the gym in derby gear. Accident waiting to happen.)  Skating hadn't even started yet.  I'd been a little worried about the safety of roller derby, but after watching a bit of the pole vaulting I felt pretty lucky we were there for the derby.  At least when skaters fall down, they don't fall down, down, down!
