Well, it is fun, but it is also terrifying for newbie dancers. I
remember the first time I danced Strip the Willow. I was all of 4'11"
and weighed something in the 85-95 range. All of the men in the line
were gargantuan heavy fighters. I just *knew* someone was going to
throw me across the hall...!!!
