Holiday Halftime Show!

The last home game of 2011 the Colts played the Texans and the halftime show was brought to you by the Colts Cheerleaders.

Jr. Cheerleaders performed alongside of the Cheerleaders during this show. And we paid tribute to the best album that came out just in time for Christmas this year, thanks to Justin Bieber. Yes, you read that correctly; the Colts Cheerleaders got Bieber Fever this holiday season!!

Even Santa Claus and his elves joined us for this spectacular performance.

Putting together a show like this always requires an addition Saturday (or two) at the office! Yours truly even found herself performing on the field during this show. Never in a million years did I think I would perform in front of thousands of people at Lucas Oil Stadium. But this very day, it most definitely happened!

For the first two songs, I was solely in charge of Jr. Cheerleaders' formations (just making sure they got to the right place at the right time!). The third and final song (Santa Claus is coming to town) I ran down to the 10 yard line and danced in front of the Jr. Cheerleaders so they had someone they could follow. If you look closely in the video, you may see me!

Considering this was our Christmas Game, we got festive! While all of the Cheerleaders were out at their morning practice, Heather and I hung stockings with care! In these stockings was a make-up bag, some festive candies, and DVDs of previous performances. Doesn't our locker room look lovely?

Since this was a Thursday night game, NFL Network aired the game live. A group of the Cheerleaders were asked to be a part of the show. I am always intrigued (and genuinely amazed) at what all takes to get a show on air. Here's a look at the pre-game filming that we did:
