I know it is the 21st--a day after this celebration--but I just couldn't resist the fun. September 20th is Chicken Dance Day in Cincinnati, Ohio.
This is a newer holiday which began in 1994, when the Crown Prince of Bavaria visited Cincinnati and participated in their Oktoberfest Zinzanniti celebration. At that time celebrations included the world's largest chicken dance. With 40,000 people joining in the activity, the event was actually recorded in the Guinness Book of World Records. Can you imagine a crowd that size all doing the chicken dance? Wow! The dust cloud must have been incredible--or at least they shook the earth a bit.

I missed Chicken Dance Day! But at least I didn't miss your card. :)
I was just at Sheila's page @ A Postcard A Day... Now I'm thinking these chickens might turn into a prince and princesses! :)
Great card. I love it. I can remember teaching my nieces this dance a great many years ago.
