Hustlers heading to Tallahassee: Help pay for gas.

The regular Texas Rollergirls season may be over, but that doesn’t mean the year is over. There’s two opportunities to hang out with the TXRG this weekend alone.

First up is the Hustler Fundraiser and Manic Fun Day at Cheapo Discs on N. Lamar, 2pm-7pm Sunday Aug. 10. This is to help the ladies in silver and purple get on the road to play the Tally Rollergirls‘s Capital Punishment touring team on Sat. August 16 in Tallahassee, Florida (tickets available now.) The Hustlers promise games, beer, food and water balloons.

If you feel like catching up with the rest of the rollergirls, head over to Blood Feud, a benefit for Leukemia and Lymphoma research. TXRG will be joining The Greyhounds and The Belleville Outfit at Hot Mama’s Espresso Bar, 2401 E. Sixth, 4pm-8pm, Sunday Aug. 10.
