FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (KATV) \u2014 The success of Netflix\u2019s \u201cAmerica\u2019s Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders\u201d has put a new spotlight on the women in the team\u2019s iconic boots and blue-and-white uniforms, turning many of the cheerleaders into celebrities in their own right. This football season, one of the faces to watch is Haley Bogdon, an Arkansas Razorback alumna now in her rookie season cheering for the Dallas Cowboys.<\/p>\n
There was a sparkle in Bogdon’s eyes when she talked about being a DCC. <\/p>\n
\u201cIt’s truly unreal getting to dance on that field and with this group of girls,” Bogdon said. <\/p>\n
Before joining the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, Bogdon spent her college years cheering on Arkansas as a Razorback dancer, an experience she said she wouldn\u2019t trade.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere is truly nothing I feel like, like a Hog fan. Looking back, I wouldn’t change a thing. It was the most incredible experience,” Bogdon said.<\/p>\n
Bogdon said her dance background started as early as her love for the Cowboys. <\/p>\n
\u201cI started dance when I was 3 years old when my parents put me in a class, and pretty much I haven’t stopped taking classes and dancing since,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
The Frisco native said she’s been a fan for her entire life and she dreamed of becoming a DCC.<\/p>\n
Bogdon said the moment the dream became real came after months of training and tryouts, when uniforms were handed out.<\/p>\n
\u201cI really couldn’t believe it and see Charlotte walk out with our uniforms,\u201d she said. \u201cI really did my best not to black out almost; I was like, take this in because I’ll never get to experience it like this again,\u201d Bogdon said.<\/p>\n
Now on the sidelines during games, Bogdon is also set to appear in Season 4 of Netflix\u2019s \u201cAmerica\u2019s Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIt has already been an experience of a lifetime, one that I couldn’t have even imagined,\u201d she said. <\/p>\n
Outside of cheerleading, Bogdon graduated with a nursing degree and works as a part-time nurse when she is not at games or practice. She said that once her time cheering is done, she wants to continue taking care of others.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"FAYETTEVILLE, Ark.
