Title: Bakersfield
Post by: blake on October 17, 2016, 02:58:09 AM

Who's heading to Bakersfield this weekend?
Quite a few Aussies will be there.
But I'll be watching it live in Australia on Bangshift. Next best thing! 👍

I do not think Bangshift will broadcasting this I know they were not allowed to last year I think they only get the March Meet
