Harsha Punishment, No. 25:17

Tagline

Vengeance served!

How did you come up with your number?

I wanted scripture and I'm also a huge fan of movies. So to combine the two I took the scripture that Samuel L. Jackson quotes before he kills someone in Pulp Fiction.

Ezekiel 25:17 - I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger against those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers (in my case sisters). And you will know my name is the Lord (Harsha Punishment) when I lay my vengeance upon you!

How did you come up with your derby name?

It's a play on my last name Harsha and if I get angry enough you will feel my wrath.

How and when did you get involved in roller derby?

In November 2010 I came home one night and my husband had watched the movie Whip It and thought it looked like something I would really like to do. So I watched the movie, then a documentary, and then googled "roller derby st. louis". I came across the lovely ladies of ARRG and saw they had information night in a couple weeks. Our tryouts were in February and the rest is history!

Any serious injuries?

Nah, not serious. Bruised chin, busted lip, rink rash, and a wicked scab on my knee from one of Eli's wallops.

Do you have a rival on the track?

No rivals, but I do consider it a form of respect when I get the crap hit out of me.

Most exciting moment in your derby career?

Getting drafted to the Smashies!!!
