Oldest NFL Cheerleader Laura Vikmanis' story getting The Hollywood treatment
foxnews ^

Posted on 03/25/2011 5:39:59 PM PDT by Red in Blue PA

Ben-Gal Laura Vikmanis. (Bengals.com) The NFL's oldest cheerleader just scored a movie deal with New Line. Laura Vikmanis shakes pom poms and does high kicks at the ripe old age of 42 for the lowly Cincinnati Bengals. A team so bad the last couple of years she was probably the most interesting thing to watch on the field. New Line obviously thinks so, as they have picked up the rights to her story, and assigned writers whose credits include "Gnomeo and Juliet" and "Ratatouille," the Hollywood Reporter reports.

After her husband left her for a younger woman, she told her sister at a Bengals game that cheerleading looked like fun, and maybe she'd give it a try. Vikmanis, who has two daughters, tried out for the Ben-Gals at age 39 and was rejected.

She didn't give up, kept working out and training, and the next year, at age 40, she was in!

It appears to me that her body held up better than her face. She does look her age, not that she isn’t still attractive.

I wouldn’t be so quick to judge, until you see what
he left her for!

For a body like that, you overlook things.

Many things if necessary.

"If I am near her in the water, I am hopping on."

I'm not a physicist, but I believe that the Archimedes Principle of buoyancy would be your friend here.

Of course, just to be on the safe side, I should probably run a few tests with her first - you know, for the children, and whatnot.

Judging by the veins popping out of her arms, she appears to be a bodybuilder. Nice looking, but kind of creepy in a way.

Perhaps you would prefer the winner of the Burger King bikini riot.

I've never cared for pool floats, myself.

YMMV.

She may be 42 but those boobs aren’t anywhere near that old.

Never marry a gal that could put you in a crushing headlock without provocation.

Reminds me of the movie Lifeguard with Sam Elliott, in which a 32 year old man is still working as a lifeguard. When you are old enough to be the other cheerleaders’ mom, it’s time to hang it up.
