Roller Derby Ain't What It Used to Be

Theater in the round...and round and round and round...The Fairbanks Rollergirls put on an exciting season finale last Saturday night as the Raven Rebels put the whup on the Gold Diggers at the Carlson Center.  It wasn't the hair-pulling, elbow-busting derby like I used to watch on TV as a kid in the 1960s.  However, there were plenty of thrills and spills as the likes of "Psycho Senorita", "Pat Riot",  and "C-4" bombed their way around the rink.  "Dame Tamer" and "Falice in Wonderland" were among those officiating.
