Why guys don’t dance

Ladies, I’d like to give you a brief moment of insight into the male psyche.  Have you ever been out at a bar / club, and there was a guy with you who refused to dance?  No matter how much you tried to encourage or bribe him, he just would not get on the dance floor, and instead insisted on staying firmly planted in a chair/booth with a beer in hand?  And when questioned as to why not, he simply answered, “I don’t dance.”?  Well, let me explain this phenomena for you if you haven’t pieced it together yet.  It’s not that he’s physically unable to dance.  In fact, it’s even possible he would in fact like to dance.  It’s just…. at some point in his life, he saw some other guy dancing, and realized what an absolute fool he looked like, and somewhere, deep in the back of his mind, there is an ingrained fear that that is exactly how he looks when he dances.  Maybe not even a fear that he does look like that, just that he could.  In short, every guy who refuses to dance is terrified he’ll fit in perfectly at a Penn State tailgate:

Well, sans the Confederate flag in the background anyway.

World Record Hokey Pokey Dance Attempt

This Friday (September 3) there will be an attempt at setting the Guinness World Record for largest ever Hokey Pokey Dance at Fry Fest in Iowa City (okay, technically it’s in Coralville), at 6:00pm.  You can start arriving and checking in around 5:00 or 5:30pm.  The current record is 4,431, and it’s held by a bunch of Canadians – we can’t let that stand now can we?  I live in Minneapolis, and I’m planning to be there.  I assume, of course, that if you live closer than that, you’ll be there too – not often you get a chance to be a world record holder.

If that wasn’t enough, Hayden Fry himself will be leading it.  That’s right, hopefully 4,432+ Hawkeyes doing the Hokey Pokey dance under the direction of legendary Iowa football coach Hayden Fry.  How much more awesome can you get?

There’s more details on the Fry Fest website.

And, in case you needed any instruction or further motivation…
