It's only $75-$125 a game. That's disgusting for a billion dollar industry and the high demands put on those girls!

It’s not a full-time job.

Yeah I know that but you would think they would at least make liveable wages for such a high profile job. Makes me wonder why the hell girls even do it.

The most powerful man on Earth only gets paid $400,000 per year to run the United States. Sometimes the benefits and free shite outweigh the pay

They do it for the exposure and other deals they get from it. Modeling agencies, advertisements, etc. Its a foot in the door, and opens up other possibilities for them. Almost like a paid internship. That’s why it isn’t that much.

What exactly do you think they should make for 2 practices per week plus a 3.5-hour game?

Yeah but $400,000 a year is living nicely. You definitely ain't hurting!

Pretty sure no one is putting a gun to their head to be a cheerleader. If they don't like the job take another gig.

I dated a Saintsation in the late 90s. She made $15 for the game. Nice girl. I think she married an attorney on the north shore.

I think they should make enough to live on that's how much. I know it's only a few practices a week and a game a week, but I hear it's a full-time job when you put in all of the gym time and other requirements. They also don't get travel time.

They are typically required to have a full time job, along with cheerleading.

Yeah because they will starve if they don't. Maybe the NFL just wants to keep them skinny by starvation lol.

The beer vendors make minimum wage, so what’s your point?

They seem to have more applicants than jobs so they economically could pay less.
