That was Awesome thanks for sharing! Takes me back...25 years when I was in HS learning to country dance... I've pretty much forgotten it all now :(

[@sirraulo9002]

Yeah, brings back all those memories of nervousness of school dance presentation. Looking back, I shouldn't have been so nervous and just enjoy what we presented. 😆 Now I'm laughing hard at this 'coz I see myself in them and how awkward they seem. That must have been what the audience back then saw as we perform. 🤣

[@da10cent41]

It seems that Half of them are confused about what they are doing, and the other half doesn't even want to be there

They're young. They're not on laptops, tablets, cellphones or gaming devices. Good to see! Love to see people dancing. Any kind of dancing! 10 stars!

[@daykbd]

It's still funny

[@richardcogbill6791]

It's not like they are out there by themselves, like a few couples where all the audience attention is focused on them. This was like 200 people dancing? I've seen better flash dance mobs than this. Maybe this generation just doesn't dance much socially so any kind of dancing seems awkward to them. Not back in the 70s when there was no cell phones or social media. We had great music and dances moves to learn from watching Soul Train. Even learning a square dance for a performance like this would be fun rather than awkward as it appears with these young people.

More like an anti mating ritual, if you line dance while sober, you probably ain't gettin' any. It's like Renaissance Fairs or historical reenactments, most normal people don't do it. The only people I've seen do this voluntarily are either geeks to the extreme or drunk out of their minds.
