How and when to do Thunder guard Cam Payne’s extremely popular new peek-a-boo dance

You’ll be seeing this new dance move everywhere.

Thunder rookie Cam Payne has essentially fallen out of the Oklahoma City rotation, which is great news for him, because it means he has plenty of time to work on inventing new dance crazes. Here’s what he busted out last night as his team pulled away in crunch time:

This new dance craze is great because it looks really cool AND you can do it yourself pretty easily. Here are the steps:

1. Cover your face with both hands

2. Stick your butt out

3. Stomp around in place like an uncoordinated monster on a treadmill

But best of all, Cam’s new dance is applicable in tons of everyday situations. Here are just a few where this dance move will fit right in!

  • You’re in the witness protection program but want to rage at the bar where the people you snitched on like to hang out.
  • An evil henchman just poured sulfuric acid on your face but your favorite song is on.
  • You’ve been using a more attractive person’s pictures for your Tinder profile but you’re still trying to win your date over with a fun night on the town.
  • Your game of peek-a-boo is particularly lit.
  • You’re experiencing great emotional anguish and/or intense personal grief, but it’s not going to stop you from tearing the club up.
  • You’re having a great time with your main dude, Steve, but don’t want him to notice you just got a “STEVE IS AN ASSHOLE” forehead tattoo.
  • You accidentally picked an indiscreet location for changing from your superhero costume into your alter ego’s clothing. A crowd has gathered and they’re pointing and shouting “HEY LOOK! NOW WE KNOW THE SUPERHERO’S TRUE IDENTITY,” so you try to distract them with an impromptu dance party.
  • You’re a famous musician who has a career-defining, majorly publicized beef with another musician, but genuinely love your rival’s music and go to their concert to jam out.
  • A history of extremely public incidents have led to a giant sign with your face and the phrase “DO NOT ALLOW THIS PERSON INSIDE” right next to the bouncer’s booth, so you’re trying to distract them by showing you’re just here to do some non-threatening dance moves.

Now that you know when and where to do this move, get your hands on your face and start stomping!
