[Football playoffs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/earn-your-sunday) are here and nothing says football like the just uncovered LT Slide Electric Glide dance. This video is epic to say the least.

Ladanian Tomlinson or LT as he is affectionately known here in San Diego is one of the most prolific [running backs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/travis-hunter) ever to play in the [NFL](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nfl-x-crocs). With a pedigree like that you would think anything he does would be golden. Enter the LT Slide Electric Glide dance. The lyrics are sketchy at best and the dancing isn’t what I’d expect from LT. Watch the video and decide for yourself. Listen to the lyrics. Please.
