GOTHAM ROCKS THE EAST COAST EXTRAVAGANZA!
This weekend, Gotham cleaned up at the East Coast Extravaganza, hosted by the Philly Rollergirls with wins in all four games. Gotham's All-Stars wrote a new page in the history books as they took down the godmothers of all-female flat track derby by stomping the Texas Rollergirls 125-64. (See Beyonsláy's now legendary hit on Texas jammer Rice Rocket at 0:38-0:42 of this YouTube clip) Then Gotham's All-Boro team, the Wall Street Traitors, beat the North East Roller Derby (aka NERD) and our rookies (the Meatpacking District) beat the Windy City rookies (aka Skater Tots.) The great finale was another awesome Gotham All-Star victory against the Denver Roller Dolls by a whopping 221-37.
