“BTW you are our queen,” one fan wrote. “Love this! Can’t wait to see the Dolly show! Ya’ll will rock it!!” another supporter proclaimed.

 

As for the team she will be cheering for, Dallas begins a three-game homestand Thursday against Washington before hosting Seattle and Philly. The Cowboys have gone 32-22-1 on Thanksgiving since starting its holiday tradition in 1966.

Dallas had lost three straight games before snapping the skid against the division-rival New York Giants in 2022.

The team is 7-3 on the year after a rather easy victory over the Carolina Panthers on Sunday by a score of 33-10. Dak Prescott threw for 189 yards and two touchdowns, DaRon Bland tied an NFL record with his fourth pick-6 of the season.

The Cowboys sacked Young seven times and limited the Panthers to 187 yards.
