Spontaneous acts of riverdancing

Posted by on 22 March 2010

Those who were passing through Munich’s Marienplatz on St. Patrick’s Day were treated to a little stealth Irish jigging. The ‘flashmob’ performance was pulled off beautifully, starting with a small line of dancers.

Out of nowhere more folks in green shirts appeared and joined in the fun.

The group grew and grew; each time the new participants seemed to materialize out of thin air. One moment they were plain-clothed observers, the next green-wearing dancing machines (or in two cases, sheep-costume-wearing dancing machines).

Here’s a video of the event. It was enough to make one wish for a green pint of beer.

  • Hey Jules – they caught you on the end of the video! Woot Woot ! ;-)

  • Fun I love seeing those on Youtube! Someday I would love to see in person.

  • Tazz – crazy! I'm not doing anything horribly embarrassing, am I? Guess I need to go watch it all the way though…

    Frau – why not organize one yourself? :)

  • Hi Jul –

    Quick question that I can't seem to uncover on your blog…. we're in Munich Wednesday overnight and want to have a superlicious vegan meal. I've got a happycow guide to the city but if you had to recommend a veg place, where would you go?

    Thanks!
