NFL cheerleaders would make more money serving beer! These girls are criminally underpaid.

Being an NFL cheerleader looks like a great job. The girls get paid to look good and dance around, supporting some of the most popular sports teams in America. But just how much they get paid is one of the NFL’s best kept secrets.

You would think that teams that generate hundreds of millions of dollars of revenue each year would be able to generously compensate their cheerleading squads.

In reality, these girls get paid next to nothing. In fact, they’d be financially better off serving beer at the nearest concessions counter.

Incredibly, while NFL players are getting paid thousands (if not tens or hundreds of thousands) of dollars per game, cheerleaders are generally paid about $70 to $90 per game. A player on an NFL team’s practice squad makes around $100,000 for the season. These players never set foot on the field during a game.Still, over a 16-game season, they make about $6250 per game.

Some cheerleaders are paid monthly salaries ranging from $1000 to $1,500 with the higher end of the scale being reserved for those with extensive cheerleading experience.
