Fact: Patrick Swayze's Mom Taught Him How To Dirty Dance

This is an emergency drop-everything-and-watch alert: The Swayze Dance Method:

So was there a time when you could open up the yellow pages and find a Patsy Swayze Dance Method studio and learn how to dirty dance just in time for your dirty dancing competition? And WHO IS BAMBI and why have we never heard about her since? Via everythingisterrible, which will surely get us through the depression with their wonderful toys.

The guy wearing the bolo tie has already won the dance competition in my book.

I'm from Houston, and I danced for about 10 years, so I had several instructors who trained under Patsy. She's much cooler than this video makes her out to be. I've competed with some of her choreography before and done really well.

Um, sorry, but the 'comments" section of this blog is reserved for only ironic praise of cheesy youtube video subjects. You were entirely too sincere. Take it outside, please...
