Footloose Father Blogs

The Dancing Dads Tumblr Page Captures Your Rhythmless Relatives

— September 19, 2011 — Pop Culture
There's just something about a middle aged man busting a move, like those featured on the Dancing Dads Tumblr, that causes inner conflict. It's so humiliating (yet so hilarious) that only a public collection of fancy footwork videos can do it justice.

Blogs about embarrassing things your parents do may seem overdone, but as soon as you watch the first display of dads dancing in sweater-vests and slacks you won't be able to resist scrolling through the entire site. From a father breaking it down with beer-fueled enthusiasm, to a background prancing parent with Bieber Fever, this collection of shimmying semi-seniors is one that will suck you in completely.

If you know someone at home that could land a sashaying solo on the Dancing Dads Tumblr page, grab a camera to contribute to this viral video-blog. Who knows, you might even want to consider parental emancipation for embarrassment-prevention purposes.
