“Sarah Thomas has made history again as the first female Super Bowl official,” said Troy Vincent, Sr., the NFL’s executive vice resident of football operations. “Her elite performance and commitment to excellence has earned her the right to officiate the Super Bowl. Congratulations to Sarah on this well-deserved honour.”

As a parent of a hockey referee who’s in the 12th year of his career, I have a soft spot for sports officials, congrats Sarah and have a great game from Hot Country 1035!
