First Football Game!! FIU vs. USF

BEST BEST BEST Football game ever!! At least for me it was! It was exhilarating and exciting to dance in front of a huge crowd! Before the game started, all of the Dazzlers took center field and stood right behind Syesha while she sang the national anthem. It was really nerve-racking to stand behind her. There were cameras everywhere! She did a great job singing and I scored my 15 minutes of fame on the news later that night!

Once she was finished we took our spot on one side of the field and began our sideline routines. As the Captains were trying to call sidelines and give directions, we the USF band kept playing over all of our music, and no one could hear a thing. All in all I think the Captains did a great job calling sidelines and keeping the team together. For the second and third quarter of the game, we moved to the opposite side of the field closest to the students. It was so exciting to dance on that side because it was mainly our home team supporters and they were LOUD! I felt like I was in a whirlwind of cheers. The students got even louder when we performed our "Time-out" kick line routine. The crowd went nuts and it gave me a huge rush of adrenaline hearing how much they loved us!!
The game was awesome and FIU scored a touchdown! That was the highlight of all the fans' night, including myself. It truly was an awesome game and I can't wait to step on that field again in October!!
That's it for now!
