"I have been wanting to do the anthem, anything they would have me," Moskaluke said, adding she has never performed at a Rider game.

"I'm pretty sure this is the most epic first timeever," she said of the opportunity, calling the performance a no-brainer.

Moskaluke said she still calls Saskatchewan home and fully understands what it means to be a fan of the Riders.

Her favouritememory?
