Schwarzenegger Dances the ‘Hora’
We can’t decide if this is the most awkward or hilarious thing we’ve ever seen, but check out the video below of California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger dancing the “Hora” yesterday with a group of Hasidic rabbis in Sacramento.
Apparently, the gov was so excited that he tweeted: “Dancing the Hora today at the Menorah Lighting. It was my 7th Menorah Lighting, and I always love it.”
Glad you enjoyed, Arnold.
