Keith - so great! Thank you - Spending a lot of my youth around Pittsburgh, where every wedding seemed to include it, I just assumed the chicken dance was either Polish or Italian because of the large immigrant communities there. French?! Who knew!?
So glad you liked it. It was just an odd thing that actually had a pretty interesting history. Of course, I can't get it out of my head for the last 3 days or so, but it was fun.
I guarantee that this has been translated into Polish and Italian by now. I always thought it came from Italian immigrants, myself, but for no particular reason.
