In the grand tradition of the Electric Slide and the Macarena comes the newest fad line dance: the Booty Call. With simple choreography--just a few steps and shakes--the Booty Call has been capturing a huge following in the D.C. area among the geriatrics and Georgetown set alike. Even Vice President Al Gore '69 has vowed to abandon the Macarena in favor of the "Booty Call." Clubs in the area can't keep up with the demand for the butt-centric moves and it promises to make a dent nation-wide. So, before the trend passes Harvard by, take time to learn the dance craze that will soon storm the nation. Here are the steps as reported by the Washington Post.
