It’s (not really) a Dance Off…
But as Jake put it, more of an exhibition. But either way. Thankfully I didn’t get arrested for these moves, but you still have to be careful. Ladies, this is what guys do at bachelor parties. Question answered. What happened in Vegas, in this case is not staying in Vegas.
Sambas: Not Just the Name of a Sneaker (Introduzindo Crazy Legs)
That night we went to Junior’s house and then to the Beija-Flôr show. Above is a picture of the samba school, whose colors are blue and white and whose name means kisses flower. The show took place in a theater called Claro Hall (located under a mall). Opening acts were Monobloco and MC Marcinho. Above that is Crazy Legs (thanks Jake for the nickname), doing some dancing Brazilian “funky” steps. Those paolistas (from Sao Paolo) had some moves, but were definitely not prepared for the serving that this gringo could do. If BDR had been there with the spin moves, we may have been able to change the Americano stereotype double-handedly. But in true, late night weekend fashion, we finished off the night with some slices made of palmito and calabreza in Pizzaria Guanabara. ETPO (Estimated Time of Pass Out): 5AM. DTEO (Definite Time of Eye Opening): 1PM, which was fine with me since I managed to burn my entire face within 2 hours the previous day. You could call me Porco like a Portuguese version of Lord of the Flies.
