Florida fan who went viral at Ole Miss college football game identified and answers very common question about personal life
A fan who unexpectedly became one of the biggest talking points from the Gators' demolition of Ole Miss has not only been identified, but she's already answered one of the questions fans were most eager to know about.
While the Gators' stars were making headlines on the field, it was a blonde spectator in the stands who quickly became the center of attention online, as her attention-grabbing looks turned the game into a secondary spectacle among fans.
Blomquist's viral moment
Peyton Blomquist was shown by ESPN's cameras during the game while wearing a black dress, with the brief broadcast appearance quickly spreading across social media, leaving many fans saying the same thing, while clamoring to find out who she was.
The moment was enough to send fans searching for the identity of the woman who had suddenly become an internet heartthrob, and it was revealed to be Peyton Blomquist.
Blomquist later posted a series of six photographs from her game-day outfit on Instagram, captioning the collection: "Work the cut."
Since her appearance on ESPN, her social media following has reportedly jumped by tens of thousands.
The Florida student is originally from Orlando and currently studies nutritional science at the University of Florida, and there's considerably more to her background than her unexpected moment of fame in the stands.
Before heading to Florida, Blomquist graduated from high school as salutatorian, and was heavily involved in extracurricular activities, serving as president of both the Biology and Medicine Club and ChemClub.
She was also a member of the National Honor Society and Science National Honor Society, while taking part in her school's debate team.
Away from academics, Blomquist has an athletic background too, and played volleyball in 2019, helping her team finish third at the AAU National Championships.
The student answers one very common question about her personal life
As her profile exploded online, it didn't take long for social media users to begin asking one particular question about Blomquist's personal life, and it wasn't about what she studied at university.
One commenter appeared to question whether she was available romantically, with the viral student responding: "Actually, I'm in the market for a husband, so maybe not," she replied to the probing question.
As such, the door has very much been left open for potential suitors to slide into Blomquist’s DMs, with the social media hit the ideal blend of looks and brains.
