the

BEST
IDEA
EVER

has been presented to me, and it follows.

During halftime of one of my school's basketball games, after the teams clear the floor, I and a bunch of mates are going to run to midcourt, link arms, and start doing the Riverdance. Yes, the Riverdance. The silliest set of motions humans can consciously make. The "We've been culturally isolated for centuries and this is our idea of dancing: I can jump and kick, but I cannot move my head, I cannot move my arms, and I cannot move my hips" dance.

Not that any of us actually knows how to Riverdance. But we're sure going to give it hell.

And then, after we're out in the middle of the floor, we're going to keep on doing the Riverdance. Even when the teams come out of the locker rooms, we're going to keep on doing the Riverdance. When they ask us to please get off the floor, we're going to ignore them. When they start pushing us off the floor, we're going to link arms. To clear the court, they're going to have to physically lift and carry each of us out of the gymnasium.

Since a) our basketball teams all suck, and b) we're an extremely small town school, we're reasonably sure this will be the highlight of the night for all involved. Maybe even of the whole year.
