Paying homage to the Gamblers' cheerleading squad!
Talented, intelligent, personable
and beautiful. These are just four of the adjectives associated with the Gamblers Highrollers.
The Highrollers,
a unique combination of dance and cheer team, under the leadership of directors and choreographers Lea Geeslin and Terrence
Karn, were selected through an audition process at the Houston Westin Galleria. Although the Highrollers were extremely
attractive, they were not chosen solely on looks. Their selection was based on a point system, entailing dance ability, personality,
appearance and fitness.
The Highrollers' backgrounds were as diverse as the functions at which they represented
the organization. The team was comprised of professional dancers, actresses, models, flight attendants, teachers, secretaries,
students, and occupations in medicine and law.
