The Big Easy Rollergirls are rollin' in from the bayou on Saturday, May 15th to take on Assassination City in a grudge match where the results are sure to be heard all the way from Dealey Plaza to Bourbon Street.
It was only a year ago that AC Derby's Special Ops defeated the Big Easy Rollergirls by a mere 9 point spread.

In 2005 we took a little trip Scattered all across the country up the mighty Mississip We brought along our wheels and we packed up all our dreams And we beat that bitch Katrina and came back to New Orleans
CHORUS: We formed our pack and the skaters kept a-comin’ There wasn’t nigh as many as there was a while ago We fired our jammer through and she began a-pumpin’ On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
We strapped on our roller skates before the banks were dry And BERG was up and rolling through Hell and Water High At the World of Mardi Gras BERG founded all her teams With axle-grease and glory, the pride of New Orleans
CHORUS: We formed our pack and the skaters kept a-comin’ There wasn’t nigh as many as there was a while ago We fired our jammer through and she began a-jumpin’ On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
BERG skated ‘cross the country a-whoopin’ all the teams If not out on the skate rink, then always in our dreams. If points be scored with fashion, and jams be won by style BERG would be number one of WFTDA’S rank and file…
CHORUS: We formed our pack and the skaters kept a-comin’ There wasn’t nigh as many as there was a while ago We fired our jammer through and she began a-slammin’ On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
Yeah, we skated through the sprains, and we skated through the bruises And we skated through the blisters, but we kept our asses low We skated so fast that the Devil couldn’t catch us On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
Our girls are everywhere, all over New Orleans Our legend keeps a-growing, there’s not stopping this machine. Lawyers doctors writers singers fighters on four wheels Representing, ever growing, BERG it is for real
CHORUS: We formed our pack and the skaters kept a-comin’ There wasn’t nigh as many as there was a while ago We fired our jammer through and she began a-scorin’ On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
Yeah, we skated through the sprains, and we skated through the bruises And we skated through the blisters, but we kept our asses low We skated so fast that the Devil couldn’t catch us On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico
