AD from 'Love Is Blind' was a cheerleader for the New England Patriots.

Ah, the good old days, when the New England Patriots used to win the Super Bowl — often. Those were the Tom Brady days, and AD from Love Is Blind had a front row seat to their glory — in fact, she cheered them on in a professional capacity.

From 2011-2015, AD was a Patriots cheerleader.

That final year, Tom led his team to win the Super Bowl over the Seattle Seahawks, 28-24. That was the Love Is Blind Season 6 star's second Super Bowl with the legendary New England team, but the first time she saw them win the biggest matchup of the season.

Talk about experiencing history!

Following her remarkable stint with the Patriots, AD tried her luck with another professional sport: basketball.

Indeed, from 2017-2020, she was a dancer with the Hornets in North Carolina. Side note: This was probably a heck of a lot warmer of a place to work!

For instance, in a photo of her dance team posted in 2018, the reality star sweetly gushed in the caption in part, "I’m not sure if I’m more sore from the countless hours of dance or the late nights and car ride belly laughs. Either way, my heart is so full."
