Cheerleaders for the Buffalo Bandits are called Bandettes.  One of them is hoping to pursue a new dream and she's hoping for your support.

Her name is Cori Bugenhagen.  She's originally from Western New York and she's been cheering on the Bandits for 5 years now.  She says that being a captain on the team has helped her to get back into dancing and meet some incredible people over the years.

"I am forever grateful for my time dancing and being a captain for this team. It’s time to hang up my uniform to allow a rookie to have their own phenomenal opportunity in Banditland. "
