Womens' Roller Derby In Portland, Oregon - Our Photos

missinglinks (49) in sports • 7 years ago (edited)

A few years ago, my Wife, Son and I went to a few Roller Derby matches in Portland, Oregon.

These matches take place in a part of Portland called Oaks Park.

We did not know the rules at first but it was fun to watch anyway.

After awhile, we learned some of the rules but there was still much we did not understand. I have intended to go more but just have not got around to it.

If you have never seen a roller derby match you should check it out sometime - you might like it!

I hope you like our photos!

Please consider up-voting, following, re-steeming, etc.

Thank you very much!

@cornholio Hello! Ha ha you are a character---I checked out your account! I think you are just joking--those born without one----I believe modern day surgery in first world countries can create one where it is naturally supposed to be. Otherwise, people can get a colostomy. I do feel lots of compassion for people who truly have this problem---I would HATE to have a colostomy bag! Pretty sure you are joking though. Take care and thanks! :) Following.

Having an ostomy isn't that bad, many of us it gives us back a life that would have been stolen way to early or stops us from living in the toilet so that we can have a life. I love my life with my ileostomy and would have died at 26 without it...

Side note, My sister recently went to a Roller derby night with the possibility of joining them, I really should find out what happened with that. I think she would rock at it.
