Video: Who said snooker is boring? Harlem Shake at the Welsh Open

The Harlem Shake has been going into overdrive in the past week or two, but this is easily our favourite so far, and unexpected rendition at the Welsh Open.

The Harlem Shake has been going into overdrive in the past week or two, but this is easily our favourite so far, and unexpected rendition at the Welsh Open.

By Declan Whooley

Many people are rightly sick of the dance with a lot of average versions, but this video is well worth a viewing. Firstly just because it is at a snooker game, and the participation from everyone is brilliant. Oh and did we mention it was at a snooker game?

And not just any game, this was prior to yesterday’s semi-final of the Welsh Open between Stephen Maguire and world number two Judd Trump. Maguire defeated his rival 6-4 to book a place in the Welsh Final, but it is perhaps the pre-match entertainment that will be the talking point.

Hats off to everyone involved, but special mentions must go to reporter Rob Walker and the cameraman who really add gusto to the performance.
