More than 300 women were on hand for the Atlanta Falcons Cheerleaders auditions at the Georgia World Congress Center on Sunday. Here are some photos.
It was tough work serving as one of the judges on the panel. Here’s a look at Sara D’s diary.
During the prelims, they had six cheerleaders performing at once and you had to vote either yes or no, based on appearance/physical fitness, Dance/cheer ability and showmanship (Smile).
If they weren’t smiling, they probably didn’t get a “Y” vote from this judge in the prelims. I’ll be looking for more dance precision in the semifinals.
The women had to learn the first routine and about half of them advanced to the semifinals.
About 40 are expected to advance to the finals, which will be held on Thursday.
