The Harlem Shake is all fun and games until a bunch of guys get kicked off the football team.


Eleven players from D-III Susquehanna University in Pennsylvania were allegedly kicked off the football team following the release of their Harlem Shake video, which showed several players engaging in faux sexual acts.


Tight end Logan Skillman sent out the following tweet Friday morning and then promptly deleted it:





The Harlem Shake is a new dance craze that is sweeping the country. Basically, music plays while one person dances and the rest of the room goes about its business. Then the scene changes and everyone is doing some sort of strange dance (or in this case, act) with props. It’s strange fad that hopefully won’t last very long.


Sure there are some vulgarities in this particular video and these players are supposed to be representing the university, but kicking them off the team is a bit much. They aren’t harming anyone, there’s no nudity. Even the vulgar acts aren’t as vulgar as they could be. For the most part, it looks like a prank. A poorly thought-out prank, but a prank nonetheless.

I think that's an excessive punishment. Personally I love the Harlem Shake vids :twothumbs:

Talk about strict policies and being brutal :shock:

Harlem Shake is a new dance? Isnt that a dance from the early 90s? Stupid to kick them off for that tho.

Whoever kicked them off should be ashamed of themselves. This isn't middle school, stop being such a stiff.

I'm looking at all of the ones on Youtube...Alabama needs to get the student body and do this on the Quad....Florida's is probably the best one yet

Maybe Saban can use this method to get us back to 85 every offseason.

You think it'll still be in style by that time?

Would love for them to do it against South Carolina today in basketball. I could see them doing it at a softball game

I don't know why I'm posting this, and it bothers me that I'm even aware of it... but UA is doing their version on Monday.

I like them, but that's just me...Not much of a mainstream guy, but these Harlem Videos are pretty addicting

 

[BAMA JAMMA]

My thoughts as well. I dont particularly care for mainstream antics but this is at least more funny than gangham style was. The trick to doing a good Harlem Shake is not by numbers but by having as much obscure and just crazy things going on when the beat drops. More crazy = more better.
