Do you hear it? Listen! Oh yes! It is the rumble of the Hall of Fame Super Bowl Game about to start and you need some ultimate Game Day food and fast!

My name is Kristie and at our house - we watch football and a lot of it. Some of my best memories are the yelling, the nail-biting and the roar of the family when the touchdowns are made (for the right team that is).

I have been a cheerleader since I was old enough to hold a set of pom poms in my hands in elementary school. Back then, it was rah-rah-sis-boom-bah and now it is more hip-hop dance to the hip moves. No matter what, I was determined to be a part of cheerleading up into my 30s when I trained and tried out for the Jacksonville Jaguar Cheerleading Squad in Jacksonville, Florida. So I made a decision to try-out. That day at lunch I had been invited by the Jacksonville Roar Cheerleading Coordinator to join her for lunch as she casually introduced me to the then owner of the Jaguars and his wife, Mr. and Mrs. Wayne Weaver. Sitting that day in the cafeteria alongside where the NFL players and the Coaches eat their lunch, was one of many thrilling experiences I had peeking inside of professional football.

Although I did not make the Jacksonville Roar cheerleading squad since my dance skills needed about two more years worth of work (or more), and my body as a 30 year old (with two children) found it difficult to compete with the 20 year olds, I learned some valuable lessons during that training part of my life. If you want it badly enough, go after it. If you hit the moon, instead of the stars you will never regret trying. Never let anyone say you are too old to try something new.

Fast forward years later, now as a divorced Single Mom, I dated a guy who was wearing a Super Bowl ring from many years past. He was proud of it and took it off his finger and handed it to me. As I twirled it around and around looking at the Super Bowl insignia and picturing the moment when he was handed that honor, I excitedly asked him what it was really like when they handed it to him......
