After an annual powder-puff girls touch football game between two high schools erupted into a huge brawl, Santa Rosa police vowed Saturday to prevent the event from happening next year.

The game between seniors from Santa Rosa and Montgomery high schools is an unofficial tradition at the end of each school year. The event, held off campus at Galvin Park, is not sanctioned by school officials but often draws crowds of 1,000.

Well we went to Knott's Berry Farm Sat. Technip Corp. paid our way, we were their guests. We saw a lot of pretty mean looking girls, who were cutting in line. I just kept my mouth shut, I figured if you reported them, they would follow you to your car and slash your tires or your neck. Some pretty mean, nasty girls around. These girls looked meaner and tougher than the gangsta boys! I had already noticed one of the girls, she just looked mean. Her face was so intense. Like she wasn't able to relax her face muscles. A permanent scowl. My 18 year old son said TOO MUCH TESTOSTERONE in that girl. Would I go again if I had to pay for my entry ticket? No, lines were 1 1/2 hour long for a two min. ride, and they don't have many rides. Magic Mtn. is better.
