December is here and cold weather football is upon us.
We had some cold-weather football last week, too. It was freezing cold in Philadelphia for the Black Friday game between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Chicago Bears. The Bears ended up upsetting the Eagles, to improve to 9-3 on the season. Chicago is currently the No. 1 overall seed in the NFC.

Charissa Thompson and the NFL on Amazon Prime crew was on hand for the Black Friday game. Thompson was inside and outside of the stadium for the Black Friday contest. However, she admitted that she messed up with her sideline outfit.

Thompson, 43, looked good on a cold day in Philadelphia on Friday. She rocked a blue suit with light blue gloves and a scarf.
She had fun in Philly.
“Black Friday Football ….. was a windy and chilly one 🥶!! We had pushups, giveaways , Jason dropped by & Bears keep it rollin 🏈. Loved this jacket @harriswharflondon and dress by @anonlychild . Wish I got a pic of the dress without the jacket but check it out on the @shopbop app. @dominiquediazz 🤍 @cooperneill 📸,” she wrote.

But Thompson has admitted to “messing up” with her cold weather game outfit choice.
Thompson opens up about outfit mistake
Thompson, speaking to Erin Andrews on their “Calm Down” podcast, opened up about how she’s just not cut out for cold-weather games.
“I am ill equipped for these cold games. I try to be all cute and end up freezing my (expletive) off at these games,” she told Andrews.
“I should take a page out of my girl’s book over here, who is like the Queen of the Cold, and you know how to do it, with a heated vest and all of the stuff. And you’re always prepared.”

Andrews, though, doesn’t always love her cold-weather fits.
“I look like Olaf (the snowman from Frozen),” she joked.
“Or Randy from ‘A Christmas Story.’ And Charissa looks like an F1 wife. Like she looks like a super European model.”
Hopefully, Thompson bundles up for her next cold-weather assignment.
