Derby Fun at Troy Night Out

Well, I just returned from having a blast with the Hellions of Troy. They are the roller derby league that I am affiliated with. We attended an event called the Troy Night Out which helps with the art community of Troy. We were supposed to skate out at Monument Park, but the rain did not let us. We also "fliered" the area. This is when you hand out fliers to people that are watching what you are doing, or that you think would be interested in derby. We stopped in a couple of the art studios and a few coffee shops. It was nice because I saw one of my friends from college and got to talk to her about transitioning and stuff, as well as trying to get her to start with derby (or at least come to watch it).
The most fun parts of the night were when we came up with a new derby strategy, and when we handed fliers to the cops. We decided the new strategy will be called Shock and Porn. It's named after two of our skaters, but we are hoping that it will help the team. I would reveal more, but I am afraid of giving tactics away. The other exceptionally fun part was when two of the girls (I beleive it was Ida and Chesty, but I could be wrong), fliered the Troy Police. The cops told the girls that they were the Off Brothers, Jerk and Jack. We also mentioned that we were looking for a space to skate and they said they would try to help us. We were really excited with the cops having a whole conversation with us and I already sent in the photos that I have of the girls "soliciting" the cops.
