Trivia
- This item originated from a true event that happened within Valve headquarters. An employee had begun performing a silly dance in the break room which caught the eyes of several employees. An animator currently working on Team Fortress 2 saw this, whom then took to his workstation and recreated the dance as a taunt. They later claimed "[it was the] funniest shit I've ever seen".
- The dance itself seems to originate from the legendary battle royale game "Animal Crossing: New Leaf."
- Files for this taunt were found at launch and appears to have been intended as the Scout's original primary taunt, but was cut due to unknown reasons.
