This was so much fun! Had no expectations because I'd never been to roller derby and didn't know what it was all about, and this event EXCEEDED any expectations I could have had!!! HIGHLY recommend for a reasonably priced night of super FUN action!
We had a good time but we were confused about the rules of the derby. We also heard many questions in the stands about what was happening. It would have been nice if during breaks they explained a little about the rules, different roles or strategies. This sport is new to many people especially after a year or two away from attending big events.
I have been attending Roller Derby for nearly ten years. I bring my kids, and anyone who wants to try something new and fun. However; now it seems to have turned into a super low-budget experience. No live band, no flashy outfits, no verve that it used to have. Granted we have been in a pandemic and many derby-ers have probably gotten other jobs and moved out of this physical sphere of entertainment Completely understandable. It is not the same and many people left at half-time, while I lasted until the last 15 mins then finally had to admit I was not having a good time. Bring back the t-shirt cannon, the wackydoodles, and the live show as well as the fierce competition = or you'll lose me.
Fun, competitive, fast moving! Loved it! We'll be back!
The semifinals were so much fun. Every employee at the venue was helpful and awesome. The seats were great and everyone I came with had an awesome experience.
You're right in the action no matter where you sit. The best clean family entertainment for the price! You will get used to ignoring the announcers as you can't really tell what they've saying. The scoreboard is an awesome upgrade! Go a few hours early to start time to secure parking and find a place to eat. Do not wait or you will be stuck driving around for awhile. Bus or Uber is best if you're closeby or want to drink. Good variety of snack$ and merchandise.
My husband and I went knowing absolutely nothing about what we were going to watch. At first, it looked like chaos, until we realized the rules were spelled out in the program. (Tip 1 - Grab a program.) There was also an animated mini-lesson on the big screen about half way through. 4 teams took the floor in total. First 2 teams played a 1/2, then the next 2 teams played a 1/2, then a punk band took the stage and everyone in the stands got on the floor to dance, then the first 2 teams played their second 1/2, etc. The best way I can explain it is a little like rugby (lots of scrums), but with a human ball and an ever-moving goal line, plus circus sideshow. We'll be back!
Great event...fab people watching...Feisty athletic women ...!!!!
Always fun and entertaining! A great event that is inexpensive, kid-friendly and perfect for a date or girls night!
Love the energy and the good clean fun. Halftime crowd participation was amazing! Players were very competitive but you could see the love and respect they have for the game and each other. Such a fun event :-)
My seats were great but the fee charges were over priced.
It was really fun. I wish I knew the rules better. I should have looked them up before the match
Fun time, never been to a derby my date smiled the whole time
Always a great time. Friendly for all ages. We've been going for 5 years now and love it! Parking and traffic is difficult if any other events are downtown so 1) park and take a bus 2) leave 2 hours early.
I’m always excited to go see MNRG skate! It’s the best feeling in the world!
We really had fun. The game is easy to catch onto, but I would suggest getting there early because the have practice game between two other teams where they stop and explain the rules. The sightlines are good. In the balcony, where most of the seats are it is reserved seating for the first number of rows, then general admission. The general admission seats are just fine. It is a good family outing. Reasonably priced. Because it has simple rules it is good for kids. What made it more fun for us was to pick a team to cheer for, even though you don't know one from the other.
I saw this type of event when I was much younger. It was on a different type of track not tape on the floor. There was much much more action. This was boring. Sorry
Date night and drove around for 3 hours trying to find a place to park. Never got to see our first roller derby match.
Not what I expected and concession food was awful. Not wasting my money again.
This event was very event less. Great for small kids. Half time show was the best part. Got tickets early to be on the floor and even that was a big mistake. No one could see anything unless they were in the front row. The bathrooms always had a line of roller girls in it and once the Wild came let out next door they were aloud to enter the roller derby for free, filling the remainder of the bathroom..
