Do Cheerleaders Actually Wear Their Uniforms to School?
We recently started watching Heroes. I have pretty mixed feelings about the show, but I’ve only seen three episodes. I’ll give it some more time before passing final judgement.
As you probably know, the show’s brightest star is Hayden Panettiere. She plays Claire Bennet, who has a (as Wikipedia puts it) ‘spontaneous regenerative ability’.
Last night we were watching episode three, and Julie raised a good question:
- In a lot of TV shows set in high school, the cheerleaders often wear their uniforms to school. That is, they showed up for class in their uniforms. At our high schools, cheerleaders never did this. Do cheerleaders actually do this (or did they when you were in school), or is it an invention of television?
I haven’t run a poll for a while, so here’s an easy way to respond.
It turns out that Ms. Panettiere is releasing an album this month. You can hear some of the tepid pop on her MySpace page.
UPDATE: I also made a Facebook poll, if you want to vote twice.
UPDATE #2: I closed the poll, and here are the results:
