Eta: Admins please don't anchor this thread like you've done to my past 7 even though each one had a sufficient title and contained no vulgarity

I didn't think they made very much per game at all. Most of their money comes from appearances. I could be wrong though and I don't feel like looking it up.

Knew a girl that was a Falcons cheerleader. Was shocked how little she made. Maybe 200 a game and not paid for any time practicing. Most do it for fun or to get exposed to a modeling job/mingle with rich people.

So how much do they get paid? How much, or rather how little, NFL Cheerleaders get paid is one of the league's better kept secrets. NFL teams bring in enormous profits – hundreds of millions of dollars every year – yet NFL Cheerleaders get paid nearly nothing. Truly, a waitress at Applebee's makes more per shift than an NFL Cheerleader makes per game. An experienced cheerleader can make about $1,000 to $1,500 per month. Most cheerleaders make far less than that. After two preseason games and eight regular season home games, most NFL cheerleaders make $500 to $750 per SEASON. If that's not embarrassing enough, keep in mind that NFL Mascots earn between $23,000 and $65,000 per year. Mascots also get benefits and bonuses and they don't have to prance about practically naked. To put it into even more perspective, let's take a look at a player on an NFL team's practice squad. These men never make a play during an actual game and they make about $100,000 per season. Over a season (16 games) that works out to $6,250 per game.

Cheerleaders clearly cannot subsist on cheerleading alone, The average per game salary for a cheerleader is $70-$150. Like I said, they'd make more money at Applebee's. Cheerleaders also put in an enormous amount of time practicing – sometimes up to six hours per practice, several nights a week. Factor in full time jobs and you're looking at a very long day. Oh, and cheerleaders are not compensated for practice time, further driving their hourly rate down. And don't forget, game days can be 12-hours long as well, for a mere $70-150 paycheck.

About enough to pay for part of their bar tab for the night...although they never have to

Their primary income is from their secretary or nursing job

They should go on strike. I'm sure there are no other hot, stupid chicks waiting in the wings to take over for them.
