II a g a in st S e a ttle
A sense o f friendly competition between Portland and
Seattle is present in more than just the mind o f Kyle Ma-
cLachlan’s mayor o f Portlandia. Fortunately, there’s noth­
ing like a little sibling rivalry to grease the wheels o f
competition and pride— the roller skate wheels, that is.
Portland’s Rose City Rollers face off against Seat­
tle’s Rat City Rollergirls for a four-by-four bout be­
tween the rival cities’ non-traveling teams April 23 at
the Memorial Coliseum. Thousands o f dedicated fans

from both sides will fill the venue to witness the aggres­
sive athleticism.
“Rose City Rollers fans are awesome,” says Guns ‘N ’
Rollers member Christine McClane (aka Roller Eclipse).
“Some people are fans o f a particular team, hut there are
others who never miss a bout, no matter who is playing.”
The stakes are high, with each city looking to topple
the tied results from February’s match-up in Seattle.
Still, as far as rivalries go, the one between Portland and
our northern neighbor is friendly, McClane says. The
rivalry with the Bay Area Derby Girls is another story.
The teams will be matched according to their 2010
intra-league rankings, resulting in four brutal bouts be­
tween the rollers o f the Rose and Rat cities: Breakneck
Betties vs. Derby Liberation Front, Guns ‘N ’ Rollers vs.
Throttle Rockets, Heartless Heathers vs. Grave Danger
and High Rollers vs. Socket Wenches.
Sat., A p r il23, 5 p. m. doors, 5:45p. m. bout; Memorial Coli­
seum, 300 N. Winning Way; $14 general admission, $20
