Meet the Kick-Ass Women of the Texas Banked Track Roller Derby

[@patricktumilty6312]

I love roller derby I remember going down to the Olympic auditorium on Saturday nights and seeing the Thunderbirds go against tunes like the Texas outlaws Chicago Hawks Detroit devils some great times great memories met a lot of great people it's sad with those days are long gone it's like dust in the wind I thank God for the great memories

[@retromaticmike5388]

I love this sport and I don't get into sports the only sport my father and I agree on I have the Roller Girls A&E dvd set

[@ImYourCherryBomb]

I’ve always wanted to try roller derby but I’m a big baby. However last year I’ve really been forced out of my comfort zone and I think I might give it a try.

[@ImYourCherryBomb]

@krystalpalace2k I've actually attended a few games just to watch this year, and each time the seats have been packed. Cute try, though.

[@JohnSmith-ft2tw]

Brings back memories of Leon Russell and his sort of rag time number called "Queen of the Roller Derby". But then, I am old. 😎

[@bambamandrews]

I just love how sweet Knockout sounds... cause she's a mf beast on the track!

[@arch79201]

Used to watch Roller Derby with my father. The thing that sticks with me was, "Men are mean, but women are vicious."

[@michaelanderson9792]

My Father and I where big derby fans we live in Kenosha wi we between Milwaukee Wi and Chicago IL so we saw a lot of derby on tv back in the retro day my father rip I lost him last year a stroke at age 81 god bless all you derby fans

[@clarafierro6921]

Bringing memories!! Love it

[@No-pl2we]

I would have liked to see some gameplay, instead of all those slow motions.

[@agapelovebomb7208]

The one thing great about Texas.

[@necoarcofficial3598]

Can we please talk about how good the fall at 3:08 was

[@BluesFishRico]

Love Mila Juka Bititch ,Katagory 5 and Lika Boss fun times great group

[@YouCantHoldOnTooLong]

Now THIS is roller derby! Just like the good old days! I can't stand the flat surfaced modern day roller derby! It defeats the purpose and doesn't encourage girls to be properly disciplined! They need a track just like this one which is similar to the way this phenomenal sport was back in the seventies and eighties! Where the players ultimately would beat the shit out of each other! ~Dutch

[@OpalBerries]

Showed literally none of the actual derby, just scuffles.

[@Christopherdaviddd]

Reminds me of Static X - Destroyer

[@Lether_cook]

I am also derby player but I don't get it why it is not famous?

[@lizettea4426]

WhenI saw the name Las Putas del Fuego! I was so proud to be a puta myself 😂 Now i want to become a roller derby

[@luisvaldovinos6754]

When next game ?

[@erinraecowin]

Seriously? Why not cover the biggest association in the sport and their champs, WFTDA and VRDL?

[@iamkarlmeyer]

Because they covered the originators of the rebirth of Roller Derby instead...no 250-19 scores in TXRD.

[@macroevolve]

3:13 She looks like she's ready to rob a bank

[@Patryc]

now this is podracing

[@MatrixMaster777]

Was That High Priestess Creole Queen? #Awesome

[@mikeskidmore6754]

Hmm 2017 Harley Davidson has gone full Social Justice Warrier ..

[@patricktumilty6312]

Tunes is supposed to be teams great teams

[@donniehagy5125]

"Kick-Ass"??? Now THAT'S funny...

[@ImYourCherryBomb]

At least Half these women could knock your teeth out.

[@Secretspook32]

They don’t want speed skaters to be jammers we can stop on a dime and have speed that’s unreal.

[@KeelyB2318]

I use to love watching the sport. I just wonder why black girls never played historically. I'm a great skater, but I never felt welcomed to play in this sport.

[@ImYourCherryBomb]

Do it! Go and kick ass!

[@fdfsdfsvsfgsg4888]

So basically there are more people playing than watching. Doesn't seem like all that good entertainment.

[@dustbustr91]

garbage. you hardly even showed game footage.

[@brettpatetto6847]

I skated the real game fights jamming tv this just dumps a load on us classic skaters. Tnx for the humiliation

[@ImYourCherryBomb]

Gotta love gatekeeping assholes

[@duncanheger6210]

Y’all couldn’t afford a Colorist for this?

[@ditocerto]

A place for the woke for sure.

[@ImYourCherryBomb]

And where half them can (and gladly will) knock your teeth in. Go back to your safe space if the big women scary you that bad

[@gliderfs621]

I lost brain cells by watching this sport

[@FAIRYGIRL911]

you can't lose something you never had in the first place

[@kerryrobinson9947]

I used to watch "derby" on local TV. Also, wrestling was bid then. 💥🧑‍🦼🛼🔥
