TXRD: Eric the Angel




Eric is a kind of cheerleader mascot dude at Texas Roller Derby. As far as I can tell, he is dressed as Elvis dressed as an angel. Before the match, he rides the track stirring the crowd up and during it he plays the crowd just outside the track. He was game to have his picture taken but didn’t seem too keen on smiling!
