Erik Lorden Tries To Work Out A Bribe With Disco Inferno

Using our press passes, Erik Lorden the owner/chef extrodinaire of Passports and I try to work out a bribe with Disco Inferno, one of the refs at the Boston Massacre/Maine Port Authority Roller Derby Bout.

Disco wasn’t biting and as it turned out the bribe was unneccesary as the Boston Massacre led by Rockport’s Krush Puppy routed Maine from start to finish.

Shelby Shattered Sporting Pig Tails and Some Serious Ink!

Shelby Shattered sports some serious ink on her right arm. Shelby really seemed to set the pace during the bout. From my limited experience as a fan of the sport it looked like the Boston Massacre had a mental edge in knowing how to set the pace. It isn’t all about flying around the track as fast as you can.

I forgot to ask Shelby where she had her tattoo done.  The cloroing was strong.

Cape Ann represented well with two of the top roller derby skaters in Krush Puppy and Shelby Shattered having roots in Rockport and Ipswich respectively.

As it turned out I didn’t need it as they issued me an official one from The Boston Derby Dames offices.  Buddy Erik Lorden and I had all access on the floor of the event and we got a ton of interviews during warm up and throughout the bout.
