You have a high 5. I'm going to say hell yeah. Escape fast. Turn left. Escape fast. That's that's what I always say about the sport that we're going to go see. Retro it's it's it's turn right. No, it's turn left. That's kind of the joke of it. Escape, Escape fast. Turn left.
Oh, OK, they go counterclockwise. Sure. Did you did you get this notification? Well, it said I should just ask you, so I just kept my mouth shut. Well then, Vendell apparently has also been drafted for the role of the Derby team tonight. What? Yes. My Biotechnica team. What Co team? You're a you're a rabbit of some sort. I I know we have a team, but I've never watched them play. So happy that you are going to be performing tonight. Biohazards.
Biotechnical biohazards What? Yeah. Wow, we we know a bunch of players now. It's kind of cool. It's kind of sudden, frankly. Yeah, I mean. Do you? Do you the Dell? Do you know how to play roller Derby? Well, it says here, it doesn't say here what I'm playing, so. It's fast you're. You're the the rabbit. I'm sorry, are you? What? Vendel's the rabbit. You're the rabbit, yeah. Oh fuck. Oh my gosh. Is that bad? Oh my, yeah, I mean. You had the I've. Seen it better as a jammer but yeah.
What kind of insurance do you trauma team insurance do you have? I have biotechnical insurance, they pay 30%. OK, that's good then. We're going to be just fine. It's only, you know, like the deadliest, most intense sport in all of Night City. Damn straight. Well all I really do is like mess people up with like cool swords and stuff, so I think I'll be OK. I think vendor will be just fine. Says I need a a a blunt weapon. I know someone. Looks at your baseball bat well.
This baseball bat is reserved for the Trauma Team Power Siren. All right, OK, Friendly competition, I guess. Well, at least there's like there's nothing like to happen to me. So I guess if we it's just an exhibition match, it's not as if failing anybody will have any consequences or anything. No, no, no. But nobody should, probably. Go get you something, something good to hit people with. Now I feel bad. Well, I mean, I can just borrow like the bat from under the bar,
hey. No, no, we need something better than that. OK, like. What? I'll pick up a stool. Here you go. No one's going to ever think about using a stool. I mean, could you use the combat shovel I got right here? That's going to kill somebody. Oh. Jeb, can I use your combat shovel? I mean, absolutely. This is exactly what I thought would be really good for you to use as a dragger that in the sport. A rabbit. That we're all excited for and know how it works. All of us do.
Yeah, know that. Exactly, and if you don't, you can look it up on the Artelsurian website. It's one of the three DLCS. Right. This podcast is not sponsored by Artelsorian. So, Jeff, you're, you're going to come to cheer on the Roosters, right? It says me and Iona get well I I get in because I'm a player but it says I only get to VIP ticket so that's nice. Oh, lovely. I mean, yeah, I, I personally, my team is the one that's that you said you lacked. The Biohouses.
That's the one. The Roosters, right? No the. No, the towers and errands. No, the Roosters. Retro you you crit fail on persuasion and Jeb you do not have to go with him with on that if you do not want to. No, the tower. The Tower. Yes, towers. No, listen, you should be rooting for your home. Hold on. 01 moment. Hold on, I'm getting another call. Hi, baby. Hey, it's Chad again. Hi, Chad. Do we have caller ID? I guess yeah. So I I got 2 I got was 2 tickets.
VIP No, that's. A three no. General admission tickets to the Pug Bowl chat look. I, I tell you what, I'll I'll, I'll why are why are you like 300 eddies that way? Well, since you weren't able to get me those VIP tickets, all right, but you definitely owe me some VIP tickets for the next game. Yeah, you know, they let me play again. Probably have to win. So OK, I I'll be cheering for you. Oh cool. Hey, Chris, she's getting bullshit. It's going bye. Oh my God.
I hang up. Chad only was able to get me general admission tickets. Sucks the suck. He got me two. So you have one VIP, you have one VIP, but me and Jeb are going to have to sit in the the the freaking Bleacher seats. Baby, it's funny. I think it's funny that you you think that there are seats in the regular area we're. Going to have to stand. Oh, we're in the pit. Well, everything is so bad. I've been, I've been in some pits before. We're not going to. Be served food and wine.
We got to bring in our own snacks. You have you never done this before? You never been to a grimy old, old show, You know, had to bring in your own snacks, your own drink. Now, trust me, I I know all the secret places where to hide things. Some of them, I'm going to be honest, you're not going to want to know where they are. But I don't mean that they don't still taste good or can still
get you drunk. I'll be honest, if you 2 are wanting to get at least good spots, we're probably going to want to go as fast as possible to get over there because you know how the traffic yeah G you know, GA is first come first served. So if you want to. Get and Jeb will have to roll for decent parking. Yeah, if you're going to want to get to the. Hotel, I always do. So what's what's? The. Hey, are you guys going to the pot bowl? Yeah, are. You going to the punk thing? OK, I can.
You all did a really great job getting the brain. So Domino said I can give you all 1000 each because it's kind of a mid. So take 1000, you know, bets and money tonight. Why not? Could one of you put because I got a tip off? Could what do you put like 100 on the Roosters for me play Mac? Yeah, of course, of course. Put 100 on the Roosters. And then, baby, could you put it? Yeah, could you put but 150 on drama team? Thanks. Oh yeah, you got it. All right guys, have fun. So.
You had nothing retro. I'm just, I'm just playing the spread. So if we bet. I own a IS 200 for Biotechnica. Fendale's fucking amazing. They'll win if we bet. Can we like we get into the VIP area somehow like we get I? I guess you'll have to work that out for you. OK, OK, All right, All right, Jeb, we got big money. We're going to make some good bets and we're going to, we're going to work our way around the the roller Derby, All right, We're going to, we're going to
figure this out. I mean, if you're not betting on the Roosters, it's already a failed bet. Just give me your money now. Right Retro. I'm really not liking all of this negative talk. We should be rooting for Vendel here. If it was if my team was not playing, then yes of course. I would agreed, Agreed. It's very hard to cheer for somebody that isn't like I grew up with a tower siren. It's like, well, it's going to be really hard.
When your team loses because Vendel's on the Biotechnica Biohazards. And I'll give you, I'll give you 200 eddies now just to take a dive. Hey. Wow. If I'm going to, if I'm going to cheat, I'm going to cheat so that we win. All right, I should probably tell all of you this. What, they're going to do some bad things if Biotechnica doesn't win? What? Who's they? Oh fuck, this is all. It's it's all rigged.
Ain't it Don't kill my dreams that everything about the roller Derby is rigged and it's all the execs. It's not rigged. It's not rigged. They're just very adamant that Biotechnica should win. You're. Going to be you're going to be bad sports and you're going to what, just go a hooligan in there. I'm not doing shit. I'm going to set Vandell up for success, and Vendel, I believe in you all. Right. And if that doesn't work, I'll just take performance enhancing
drugs. Correct. Vendel I'm going to say right now, I am so sorry because I am one of the prominent cheerleaders of the Roosters. I am part of the coop. I'm going to fuck your day up. Am I going to have to get into a fistfight in the VIP section? We. Don't mess around when it comes to roller Derby. This is from where we came. Well, if we don't want to mess around, we probably. Should leave soon. Yes, it's going to. We need to go. We need to get there.
Jeb, I need you to drive like you've never driven before. I mean, we could take. Our time. Really, Jeb, Get in there. Oh, guy, I'm getting in there. Well, vendor, we need to stop somewhere and get you a weapon. Oh. I thought they were using Jeb's. Combat Shovel. Yeah, are. We doing that I'm. OK, I think that'd be cool. It's like a good luck champ. Wow all. Right, I'm pretty. Support. I like that. Yeah, I like it too. The GM didn't find that and it's really sweet.
Can I Can I see it? Sure. Bendel hands you Jeb's combat shovel. I'm going to see if I can't attach a Taser to the end of it. OK. Damn. Sure, Remy is just starting to put on face paint and get their coxcomb on. Cool. What? I'm trying to figure out how to do this. I have a Taser and I have a combat shovel and I have zero other supplies. Do you need help with that? How do you do this? I'll give you a hand with that. I thought I could just do it.
Normally you have to roll for that sort of thing. I I know, but I was looking at my skills and there was nothing that I could argue. Ayona, do you need help with that? Yes, I do. I will give you a hand because Vendel's going to need all the help they can. When Chick comes through, they're going to whoop their ass. I will help Ayona. Thank you. But that's right. Secretly though, I'm going to make it so it doesn't work though.
Electronics Security Tech 31 needs to roll Perception, and so does Iona, Yeah. I bet you're sweet, patootie. I'm rolling perception, all right? You're a bitch. What did and Vendel rolls a 17 which is really high, but not high enough to see that the Taser will not fire. It did however make it heavier, which can be used to Bendel's advantage, and so even though it won't fire, it does get plus one to hit there.
You go. Just be careful you it's not insulated so if it goes off it might shock you. OK, Make sure that you're wearing gloves like something that like has rubber on it. Otherwise because you know, since it's not a. Part of the uniform retro. Good. Does it have rubber on it? I mean, yeah, you have to do the skatey thing with your hand, like an amount of mask. I'm just double checking. All right, Jeb. Fresh meat. Come on, hurry up. I'm excited. Lily, I'm I'm ready to go. I'm in the.
Call the driving check. We're almost there. Oh, OK. 27, yeah. And parking. Can you believe it? I can't. Just some some little old lady has gotten her groceries and she's pulled out just as we're coming in. So you're near sort of the edge of their combat zone and you pile out to the vehicle and you're standing in front of the Pug Punk roller Derby rink. It's this big wide building. It's got a rink inside. It's not your big arena style place, but a lot of matches happen here.
Anyway, outside the front there are two vending machines, one on the left and one on the right, and an entrance A on the left and an entrance B on the right. And in the middle there's a glowing screen which can tell you more about the Pug Bowl if you want to know. Oh my God, here's my training. I am going to go over to the left vending machine. As soon as I catch it, Sir, I'm going to head up to it and I'm going to type in 0555 ROTRO. Yep, and you receive AVIP ticket
and a betting key with. Some money, 500 eddies. Cool. That is adorable. So listeners, hopefully you get to see the logo for this this releases. I drew AI drew a pug. It's awesome. He's so cute, I made him. He's a pug I like. It so I don't typically when I go to these, I go for fun. I don't typically bet. Do you need one of these betting keys to bet on the games or can
anybody do it? You walk up to the vending machine that retro's at. Now everybody's standing, at least in view of this thing, and on the front of the vending machine is this panel, and you can get things from the vending machine. Every vending machine will give you a betting key and you bet on this screen as well, which tells you the flow of the tournament tonight. Aha, So I guess we do need one of these. All right, I'm going to get myself a betting key then.
The bedding key is 50 eddies and you get 15 eddies on it as part of that price. 15 eddies on it. All right, I'll get one for me and Jeb. There is no limit. Hell yeah, we're betting all of it. You can load money on and off it during the betting period, but once a game has started you cannot bet or load money on or pull money off. Betting closes one minute before game starts and opens again where you can get your winnings one minute after game finishes. All right, Jeb, these two, these
are our betting keys. This is our. All right. Our lifeline to get into that VIP area. Hopefully if we make some big money, we might be able to bribe some people, figure something out. So. Bet big. OK, OK. Is there a reason that we're that we're betting so high? I mean, can't we just watch it, enjoy ourselves at this sporting? No. Event. No going big. Oh, OK, I understand. I understand the assignment and I'm there. What's do?
We do. We go inside here because this this place does not look very nice. You can hear a rowdy crowd inside. There is the. I mean, looks like there's like a little thing that explains what what roller Derby is. Jeff, Maybe you should watch that. No, I think I understand exactly. I mean, I've been a huge fan of this probably as long as you have. But if you want to go ahead and go in, I'm just going to make a quick phone call out here. So you know, you can just go ahead.
It's no big deal or nothing all. Right, I'll go in and save you a spot. Great. Yeah, appreciate that. Oh, look, the the call, it's coming in right now. One moment. And I Jeb, as soon as, as, as soon as VV is out of line of sight, Jeb runs over to the to the instructional video that finally tells him how this thing works, how the game works, how roller, how roller Derby actually works. Welcome to the pot bowl, young gentleman.
Here's the idea. If you've never played roller Derby before, I'll explain the rules. Quick, fast. Oh, thank God. Each squad fields five players. Everybody needs to wear skates and be equipped with skate seats. Players can bring weapons on the fields, but only blunt ones. The lead does require that all players wear roller Derby padding. For the players, there are three positions, your jammers, blockers and rabbits. Jammers are the offensive power of the squad.
They. Escape to the opposing squad offenses with the goal of tagging. The Rabbit. Each squad gets 2 jammers. Blockers are the defensive wall of a squad. The blockers protect the rabbit against the jammers. Each squad fields 2 blockers. The Rabbit. Is a living. Target. Each rabbit wears a sensor equipped target on their back. When the target is struck, the arena scoreboard registers a point scored, but every squad only has 1 rabbit. There are no. Alternative players or
substitutes. If someone is incapacitated, they are ejected from the jam and their squad must continue with fewer players the only way to win a jam. Unless it's the rabbit. Typically, a squad wins the jam by scoring 10 points. However, in puckball we've cut it to 5. They must win by the jammers tagging the targets of the opposing squad rabbit, or if the opposing squad surrender. A squad must surrender if it cannot kill the rabbit. And at least.
One jammer or if you collect at least 10 penalties. OK, so it's kind of like. So it's kind of like Team Tag, but with blunt objects as your tagging mechanism. Absolutely. Yeah. Or your fist. Or your fist. And it's double elimination look. Oh hey Vandele, do you mind not telling anyone that I didn't know how this game worked until just now? I. Mean I I didn't know either until I looked up on the garden. Right on, right on. And I and I and I. I give them a fist bump.
They fist bump you back. Yeah. Oh, that, that felt good. Appreciate that. Alright Vandele, let's it's good in there. Looking for an RPG podcast that isn't just DND? Roll to. Cast is the answer. No, no, wait, sorry. What games have we played so far? Well. We've done Cyberpunk 2020 pulp. Cathullo, Vampire. The Masquerade. The Witcher. Kids on bikes. Avatar Legends. And cyberpunk. Red.

You're going to be OK, Vendel. That's OK. You have a fully charged leg. Yes, yes I do. And a new weapon. And a new weapon don't need drugs. Do I have anything? Let me see, can I roll to have a performance enhancing drug?
You can roll to know what performance enhancing drug would work OK is. That performance? Enhancing. Drugs. I'm thinking, I'm thinking. I'm having a thought. Doing some thinking here, doing some doing some thinking. All right, Performance enhancing drugs. We're talking about cocaine in the workplace here, people. Let's let's roll for bureaucracy. It's synth coke. You rolled 17. Perfect, perfect. I I have been saving this, I suppose, for an occasion just like this.
What I I pull out a little baggie of synth coke. I own that synth. Coke. I know, I know, I have a small pharmacy in my bag and I like to be prepared. Wow, that fabrication cost you 50 eddies? That's incredible. Hold on, I'd like to fight that GM. Why? Because Iona took retro synth coke. Oh, that's several times back. That's right. You're right. Oh, you're so sweet. Thank you for letting me steal your synth coke. You did.
I didn't want you to steal it. You took it away because you said I couldn't have any more synth coke. Iona, that's retro synth coke. I know I've I've been holding on to it for a special occasion. Oh. And here you are, my special occasion do. I take it now and set the front of this bar in the public. I'm not I, I, I look around, there's not a lot of people out there. It looks like there's more people inside, but I bet that if you go into the bathroom of this place. Oh.
Yeah, there's always a bathroom. That not only will you be able to do it, there will be somebody there with more for you if you need it. Yeah. Because they're probably all on drugs, aren't they? That's what I assume. Have you seen this place? Right. No, absolutely, right. Well, Biotechnic is through the entrance A, So I guess we're going to go that way. All right, let's go.
OK. And Iona and Vendel head into the Pug Pug Roller Derby. In case you need to reference it, there is the bracket for this event. I don't need it, Rooster, so I'll go all the way to the top. Vivi is on a mission. Firstly, she's going to try to aggressively, aggressively elbow and push her way through so she can get closer. Like kind of a front row spot and kind of just like go through the crowds aggressively. Cool, do you take entrance A or entrance B? Entrance Entrance a all. Right.
You can take entrance A, you flash your ticket at the bodyguard who scans it with the barcode reader. So I know those barcodes actually work and you step into the north wing of the pug. Pug. It's filled with people. There's so many people in here. It's so busy. There's a bathroom to your N marked on a door and to your S are two of these rooms where the teams prep before they head into the rink themselves. You pass by the Biotechnical 1 and the Trauma Team one.
I would look into the trauma team one. I'm not going to like bother the players or anything, but if I'm just going to take a peek and see if I spot Chad and and give them a little wave. Sure. So you step in front of the trauma team door, there's a little LED screen on the front that has the trauma team logo in blue. Is that the blue team? And do you knock on the door? Yeah, you know what? I will. Who is there? VV here. Open. The door, yeah. Open the door. Hey, hi. Hi, Chad.
Hi, you're right there. Hi. I'm in my jersey. I'm wearing my gloves. Go my skeets. You look, get in, OK. Yeah, yeah, you look ready to go. I am, I am ready to go, ready to Derby. Well, I just came to wish you good luck tonight and I will be betting on you guys to win so. Sick. Yeah, we're in game two. Yeah, we're up against Biotechnica. We're going to fucking fuck him up. Oh. Shit. OK, No, you guys, you guys got this. You. Can bet on every game if you want to.
Yes, I probably will. I probably will. Good luck Chad and team. Yeah. Good to see he goes for a high 5B walk away. Cool. He turns it into a wave. But see you later. OK, she's making. All right. There you are, VV. Did you get the, did you get your, did we get a good spot, a good, good area down there in the pit? No, no, not yet. We have. I just was wishing Chad good luck. All right, They're playing. Oh, like, like, like wishing him good luck. I see.
Yeah, I got you. Yeah. Wink. All right. Yeah. Yeah, no, I just, I, I was just being nice. Look, being nice, I got you. I got you Being nice. Trauma Team is playing Biotechnica first, which means they're playing Vendel first, which kind of sucks because I want Trauma team to go all the way, but I. Who who we who we play some bets on? I mean, that's. I know. And something tells me based on what Iona told us, I have a feeling Biotechnica might be the winner. But I don't know.
I don't know, maybe we should like, you know, what we should do. We should try to like, yes, yes, we should. But we should also like, listen around and see what people are talking about, like what the odds are and like get get a vibe of what people think it's going to be the winner. Yeah, yeah, I feel, I feel now, now, now. First things first, though, And Jim kind of turns his back towards Iona and like, hunches over kind of awkwardly and then turns around and he's got a
flask in his hand. First things first, a drink to just win it. We all conceal reveal object. Oh no. Oh boy, that is in It's in awareness. Oh no. A bodyguard is right behind you. There's a bottle fee my dude. It's 20 eddies. Oh well, that that's only if you don't share, am I right? 20 eddies. No no, you crit failed. Give me 20 eddies. Shit. All right, God damn it. And then he takes 2 steps, he takes, he walks about 10 feet away from you and goes. Just kidding, but thanks for the
money. And walks out. Oh. Shit. And then I I just, I just turned. Well, good thing I didn't catch the other things I got stashed away in me on me. In me. In me, in you. I'd be concerned, Jeb, that we might have to do some procedures because look, I've seen, I've seen some things in my time at the hospital. So so much for you having the best places to conceal your contraband. Well, to be fair, I didn't get caught on the way in. I just got caught.
Now, when you know, I was a little hasty, perhaps. Well, let's keep moving and let's try to, yeah, let's try to get a good spot and just listen around to people are saying. As you pass the vending machine, you notice that the screen is the same as it was outside, and on it you can see the odds for each game as it changes. What are the odds right now for well, I guess for both games? Oh damn. Biotechnica, of course, of course Biotechnica has the highest odds. I'll.
Bet on them. That probably means that they haven't been doing very well lately. Yeah. Do you want to roll? Do you want to? Do you want to roll streetwise and see if you can? Find that? Yeah, you know what? I rolled a 13 for my Streetwise. You rolled a 13, so you know that Biotechnica have lost their last four matches. Combat Zone are currently undefeated and the Roosters and Trauma Team are kind of in the mid. So Combat Zone has been doing
the best lately. Biotechnica, they've lost the last four. That's probably why people are betting on them. They're due for a win. I mean, they would be the safe option to bet on. This is why. This is why I never bet in college, because I'm, I'm bad at, I'm bad at statistics, OK, I'm bad at numbers. I'm a scientist. I'm a doctor, all right? What do you think? I mean, I think, I think we put we go 60% with Biotechnica and 40% on the other ones all. Right, let's do it.
So you can bet on each game or the whole event. I mean, let's go game by game. That seems like the the safest bet, you know? No pun intended. Her perhaps a little bit intended. OK, I think that makes sense. I think we should bet bet on combat Zone. Combat zone has been winning a lot. They might, but man retro. What are the odds? There. We do. We we got the Vegas odds on these bad boys. Pretty evenly split could go either way. All right, all right.
You know what? For retro, maybe we vote on the Roosters. I think you're right. He'd appreciate that. And then it looks like, it looks like the Trauma team has better odds than the Biotechnica. So they're the underdogs. Biotechnica is the underdogs, yes. They are. I mean, they've always been the underdogs, but yeah, sure. Even though we got inside information that perhaps they're, I think, playing this whole thing.
Yeah, right. Just going to pull up to them, Yeah. You really think a bunch of corpos are really going to be able to win this thing out? You're out of your mind. I mean. That's going to put 500 on the Roosters to win the whole thing, right? 500 Jesus. All right. Well, I guess. Sorry 600, I forgot the 100 for pin. I'm you know what? I'm putting 300 on the Roosters game one I'll. Match that, Jeff. I'll also put 300 on game one for the Roosters.
And I'll put 100 on combat zone. I'm going to put 300 on combat zone. All right. Something's telling me they might win. You're feeling it, huh? Yeah, that's what I'm feeling. I don't know, Retro's been telling me all about his birds here and I'm inclined to take him up on it. I think it's all talk. I give AI give a retro fisma. Fist bump back. Yeah. To say it's all the talk, but you know it's going to be the
rooster who walks walk away. The Roosters fans are insufferable, so secretly I want them to lose. But don't tell Retro that. All right, we've made our bets. Now we have to find a good seat. And VV Jeb and Retro head out to go and find their seats. I see that Jane and Vivienne are here and I would love to talk to them. Yes, yes, you are very astute. Well done.
You walk through the space and as you walk through entrance, say Iona. You come to a table quite close to the rink and there is Jane and Vivienne. Do things look like they're going well? Oh, they're having a smashing time. Vivienne is very eccentric. Oh, I love this, I love this. Hello, you too. Oh, hello, darling. Iona kisses left, right and left. Fabulous. It's. So good to see you. I hear Danny hates you now, love. It I know it's I, I feel like I've made an arch nemesis in the city.
Got to have one every season. Every season. Two more times a year for me, you know, because it's time. Anyway, this is my assistant, Jane. She says that she knows you, Janey. Janey girly girl. Hi, Jane and I do know each other, yes. I'm not on the clock right now. I'm also wicked drunk because I wrote it to him. I love that Jane. Did I? Did I ever introduce you to Vendel my my assistant? Oh, hello. Oh, hi. That's very firm handshake. Thank you very much.
Thank you. It's it's the alcohol vendale. Don't worry, apparently, well, I I'm just beyond ecstatic to see you 2 working together. This is this is exactly what I wanted. Taking Danny's last assistant. I love it. Please. Anyway, honey, did you do any bats? Not yet. I was. It was a little crowded near the vending machine. So I mean, do you have an idea where the money should be flowing well? Rumor is in the corpo, like you
know, what is it? What do they call it fantasy Derby something something that like combat zone is going to fucking floor it or whatever. But you know, who wants the fucking riff raff to win? So I put like, you know, a few hundreds an hour on them by 10 ago. I think that that's a safe bet, actually. Yeah, I love that these betting keys have no limit. I heard one guy to like a million a day. It's a problem. Gambling is an addiction. Maybe watch yourself as well, Vivian.
We want to make sure that we all take care of ourselves and oh. Please, I'll use the corporate card. Who am I kidding? Wrong for bureaucracy. You are too much. You are just too much sometimes. So you here for the Biotechnica thing? I hear they lost the rabbit. Are they going? To play, I actually have the rabbit right here. Oh, you. Oh. Cyberleg. Oh, I'm so glad I paid. I'm so glad I bet on you. I love cybernetics, I'm brave
enough to do it myself. Vendel Vendel is a powerful player and we expect them to do their best and still forget to do the drugs. And stuff. What drugs do they do? Mostly coke, do you? Want some I want to do right now. And she just bumped some coke right in front of you. I'm not giving Jane any because the last time I did, they just kind of went a bit comatose. We have to build up our tolerance, you know, new assistance.
She'll get there, but we we'll go place our bets and we, I guess I'm heading over to my VIP seat and Bendel, I suppose you need to go meet the team. Sure, we can meet the team. I'll see you later, Ayanna. Good luck. Good luck. Bye. And Bendel goes over to the Biotechnica. I mean, there's an announcement. Game one will begin in 5 minutes. I am going to bet that thousand that we just got on Biotechnica and then whatever money Ping gave me for Biotechnica as well, OK, just overall well.
That that was. Just to win, No, To fully win, you can bet now you did that for Roosters. And I can also continue to bet for each. Game, Yeah, yeah. So if you wanted to bet on game one, you can. Do you need the roster? No, I it's trauma team. No no, it's combat zone and Roosters. I am not going to bet on the first game. Actually, I don't care. Oh interesting you refrain from betting on the first game. Correct. And you head to the other side of the building where the VIP section is.
You can step up to the bar along with retro. Do you go to the VIP section as well? Yeah, I do go to the VIP section totally cheering on the rest of the Roosters. Actually. Can I see if other Roosters know me? I did claim to be one of the top cheerleaders of the Roosters. The Roosters are locked away in their room getting ready for the match that is in 5 minutes. I meant I meant the coop, I meant the the fans. Yes, roll for it. Yes. For fans, Absolutely yes.
Roll for it. OK, Nope, not that. I don't know where you are. I'm. In control right now, that's where I am. My owner in retro, as you're walking over to the VIP section, a bunch of people are like. Yo Retro. And you get high fives from a bunch of people as you walk into the VIP and one guy called Tiny looks at you and says. Dude, you got VIP. That's it. I know, man. Hey, look, I'm sorry I can't be
with the coop tonight. I mean, I'm excited to even be here, but hey, I'm still going to take the lead from the VIP section. All right? When I get ready to when I start, let's crow. We all do. Let's crow, right? Let's crow. I'm I'm going to wait till you let me start it. When we when they start doing the pace lap is when we're going. To do it. And as you're having this conversation, you notice through the bubble that the team have
begun to get into their spots. I don't know if this is going to help out or not depending on how you run running this part of the game. But for the first lap, as we all know, there is kind of like the pace lap. Is this everybody kind of getting warmed up and get started during that point as top cheerleader that's here, Retro is going to go ahead and start Let's crow for the Roosters, which kind of goes like this. Roosters, let's go. In the rain to the night, skating so fast.
Yeah, we're out of sight. Every block, every fight. Renta Coronado, our team's dynamite. Roosters, Roosters, let's go. Roosters, Roosters, let's go. That is parody enough. You can get away with it. Roosters, boosters. Let's go, let's go. That was. That was. You can use that if you want, or don't. And the match begins. All right, Roosters, go Oscars. Go Roosters. Let's go, Firehouse. Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, days and dens, welcome to the Level. Match teams are at the start.
Line. And the green light says go first lap chicks got an early. Lead. All right, really sting fast and turning left and quickly getting neck and neck with the CZC's. All right, no contacts just yet. The first round is smooth as the teams create the deadly spread. Deadly spread. All right, with the first round complete, that was a fast one. The spread is pretty even, but his weapons are good, and the chase begins.
It's so close. Combat Zone Jammer rips forward to close the distance, narrowly missing that clothesline by the water on the Roosters team. Oh no, that clothesline was a member. Now we're seeing some combat Zoo rolls a crit success on him and has closed the distance, really giving it their all. And with that swing, the rabbits got the blows. Rep says there's no foul play, so we keep on rolling. Oh, wow. All around the cell now, the rabbit's still wobbling, Lost
some speed there. The Roosters throw a backhand hit and their second jammer clinches a hit on the combat zone rabbit and we are one to one. Isn't anyone's game. The crowd, the Roosters take a little needle, the commotion, and now that rabbit has eight. Look at that spin. You can get the crap. Oh, no. Did she just drip and fall? That's a lot of wood. She's back up the jammers hot on her tail. She's got those hits. No. Oh, oh, that's two hits and
she's gaining a little leap. Oh, she's really struggling to get away. What are the Roosters blockers doing? She's all on her own out there at the front. No support. Oh, that's two more, and that's five. And here's. The football, that's the.
Game oh all right OK everyone the crowd goes wild this has been an insane match over almost before the 3rd lap was even finished that's quick that's fast that's we're trying to cover this but there's the the chick the rabbit on the team for the Roosters she's she's not getting up got a referee coming down right now coming down from this observation platform and whatever. That was a. Lot of point. We know that people get hurt in the ring, but this doesn't look good.
Sorry about that. That is automatic. I did not mean to be insensitive. I truly hope that Chic is OK. Hopefully, they'll be ready for their next match in the losers bracket for Game 3. This is bullshit. Oh, I think I won money. Yeah, son of a bitch, God damn it. Muse Bieber's. Blonde. You can see the referee jumped down onto the track and the rabbits not getting up. Oh. Shit, Jeff, this might be serious. Oh shit, what? Did you do to check? What did you do to check? Boo.
Next time on no latency. Is that a fatality? Do they get points for that? I understand competition, but come on now. No, they don't get points for the fatality. I'm a doctor, I can help. Oh, that's going to need some reconstruction, I think. Are you all going to be like hovering over me while I'm trying to do this? You do you do a dab. You look beautiful. Jesus Christ, Retro, what are you doing? Retro. That's not even a person come back. Sometimes you got to go big, you know?
No, let it let. Let him go. Let him do his thing. Think. About we got to take out. We got to think. About that's a That's a heavy accusation. So we're going to put the rest of my money, all 150 of it. On biotech put more money on it and then I I'm betting 200. Go Chad, star player. Now you might be leading them all. Whoa, Vendel, go. You've got this. I don't know what. To root for. Up and at them. Bad Rabbit. Oh, that's a very unchecked move. Apparently he's doing good.
