TAMPA, Fla. - Two Carolina Panthers cheerleaders were charged after their arrest at a bar where witnesses told police the women had sex in a restroom.
Renee Thomas, 20, of Pittsboro, N.C., and Angela Keathley, 26, of Belmont, N.C., were taken to Hillsborough County Jail early Sunday.
Witnesses said the women were having sex in a stall with each other, angering patrons waiting in line to get into the restroom at the club in the Channelside district.
Thomas was charged with battery Sunday after allegedly striking a bar patron when she was leaving the restroom, then landed in even more trouble after police said she gave officers a driver's license belonging to another Panthers cheerleader who was not in Tampa.
Thomas, who made the trip to Florida for Sunday's game between the Panthers and Tampa Bay Buccaneers, was released from jail on $500 bail before police learned she was not the person she claimed to be.
Providing police with a false name is a misdemeanor. However, Thomas was charged Monday with giving a false name and causing harm to another a third-degree felony punishable by probation or a jail term of 1 to 5 years, said police spokeswoman Laura McElroy.
Meanwhile, detectives are trying to determine how Thomas gained possession of the driver's license of the third cheerleader.
Keathley, charged with disorderly conduct and resisting arrest, was released on $750 bail about an hour before the Panthers played the Bucs at Raymond James Stadium. The cheerleaders were not in town to perform at the game.

Too bad. I bet that would have been some performance!
Without pictures, how can we judge their actions?
Nothing like being intimate in a nice clean bar bathroom.
observation:
If the cheerleaders had done the same thing in the men's bathroom, none of the men would have complained about having to wait in line.
D'UH!! Next time use the MEN's room! Not only would no one complain, but you could charge admission and make a bundle!

Should I go there? Nah. Too easy.
The topcats (great name) cheerleader webpage does have both pictures and bio's on these......ladies(?).
It turns out one is a student and the other is a nurse according to the squad bio's.
I would have tried to load the bio's but once I looked at each, and tried to reload the picture I was blocked from getting another picture to come up.

And the Mug Shots!
I really don't see a problem with this. Hell, I wish I was there! lol
darn, all these gals I have known could have been cheerleaders if they had tried harder
not sure how this works in a stall...but i can guess
So, my question is, do they get to keep the cheerleading "job". I'm guessing yes, since the organization is run mostly by men. ;)
LOL! Funny stuff. And, not at all surprising.
ROFL!
