Dixie Smith was one of the original seven who kicked off the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders in 1972, trading chants for jazz steps in those fresh fringe uniforms that turned heads at Texas Stadium. Fresh from high school drill team days, she jumped in with the grit of a true pioneer, hitting every high kick during the Cowboys' ten-win push that fizzled in the NFC Championship. And get this-she stuck around for the full two seasons, 1972 and 1973, mentoring the newbies while keeping that country-girl spark alive amid the growing glamour. Think of her as the quiet glue in the squad, all smiles and sisterhood, earning fifteen bucks a game like the rest but building the blueprint for what became NFL cheer royalty. No flashy stories in the press, but she's frozen in that Smithsonian black-and-white, pom-poms mid-air, forever the girl who helped make Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders mean something bigger.
