Who used to watch Roller Derby?

Back when there was only 3 channels, this was entertainment.

Do you remember these queens?

The Blonde Bomber, looking all sweet like your Aunt Ginny. She`d rock their socks on the rink!

Used to watch with my great grandma. She would swear like a marine only when it was on. Good times.

Loved it. Watched every week back in the early 50s. Favorite team was the SF Bay Area Bombers. Joan Weston, Charlie O, other stars I remember were Bob Hein, Ann Cavelo, Bobby .matter, Pocahontas Lapell.

So good

Only everybody in LA on Channel 5 in the days when we had 7 channels.

rough and fun

I’ll go one better. Who has seen James Caan in RollerBall?

Yeah, I did. But I never knew the rules. I just liked watching slams, bams, and helmets flying. I liked the Bay Bombers.

Dick Lane calling the Los Angeles Thunderbirds!
