What, you've never heard of the Gotham Girls? For shame! They are New York City's only all-female roller derby league. Roller Derby was immensely popular from the 40s through the 70s, but there's a good chance you've never seen this sport up close. It's bad-ass women slamming into each other on skates, with the possibility of a fight or two—what's not to like? Hmmm...maybe this is a way they can save the NHL....
Note: the March 28 opening match takes place at LIU Brooklyn Schwartz Athletic Center (1 University Place, Brooklyn). All other events take place at Hunter College. After parties go on at Manitoba's. For more schedule information, go to the Gotham Girls website.
