The action got rolling soon after, with the Hell Marys taking on the Hustlers in some strategic skating action. Though both teams jammed and blocked with vigor, it was the Hustlers that took the bout at the end of the night with a score of 69-48.
Afterwards, we caught up with some of the skaters and asked them about their favorite Austin Places. Popular locales included the Barton Springs Pool, where many a Rollergirl likes to take a soak after incurring big bout bruises; Waterloo Records, where in addition to checking out great local music, you can also buy tickets to upcoming bouts; and Black Sheep Lodge, which routinely host Friday night pre-bout pep rallies.
