History will be made on Sunday in Tampa and while I'll be honest I can't tell you the mascots of the two teams playing in the Super Bowl on Sunday, I can tell you I'm so excited for Sarah Thomas.
Sarah Thomas made history as the first permanent female NFL official in 2015 and the first woman to officiate an NFL playoff game in 2019 but now she’s kicking it up a notch: She’s the first woman in history to be part of the officiating crew at the Super Bowl.
Even cuter? Her daughter wants to be just like her.
“I never set out to be the first in any of this, but knowing the impact I’m having on not just my daughter, women everywhere when I get on the field and take it all in I know I’m probably gonna get a little teary-eyed.”
So, I’m literally only watching to watch Sarah do her thing because women like her are blazing a trail one industry at a time!
