The Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders are trading pom-poms for buzzers as they step onto a different kind of stage - Celebrity Family Feud. The iconic squad will square off against the equally legendary Harlem Globetrotters in a primetime episode airing Thursday night at 7 p.m. on ABC, also streaming on Hulu and Disney+.
The matchup promises laughs, friendly rivalry, and a chance to show a different side of “America’s Sweethearts.” But there’s more at stake than bragging rights. According to a press release, any winnings from the Cowboys Cheerleaders’ appearance will be donated to the National Medal of Honor Museum in Arlington, a project that has drawn national attention and support for its mission to honor the stories of America’s military heroes.
The Cowboys Cheerleaders have long been ambassadors for the team and North Texas, and their appearance alongside the Globetrotters - a team known for mixing basketball skills with entertainment - adds a unique twist to the long-running game show hosted by Steve Harvey.
It’s not the first time the Cowboys Cheerleaders have stepped outside the world of football, but Thursday’s primetime appearance ties their star power to a cause close to home. For fans, it’s a chance to watch two legendary teams compete in an arena where quick wit and teamwork, not touchdowns or trick shots, will decide the winner.
