Jack in the Box cooks up stupid new dance
If the chicken dance ever had a trace of cultural dignity, I think we can safely say it's been flushed down the commode by this Jack in the Box ad for the Mini Buffalo Ranch Chicken Sandwich. I suppose you have to give the advertising team credit for turning such an obnoxiously long product name into an unshakable earworm. And there seems to be quite a bit of YouTube evidence that this dance is, in fact, sweeping the nation. It's been attempted by a few kids, Jack in the Box's interactive marketing team and at least one stormtrooper with a girlfriend soundly out of his league.
