Adding insult to injury, an unnamed online jokester opined that “The poor people on that [Carnival Triumph] cruise ship…having nothing but skeet shooting, shuffle-board and polka dancing to keep them alive”, per the February 16-17, 2013 issue of The Wall Street Journal. Actually, polka continues to be a hugely popular dance in many countries and many communities in the USA. It’s a fast dance, so it’s good for exercise. It can be done at all levels of expertise. It goes well with beer. What’s not to like? Well…, the Chicken Dance is a polka.
