Four stupid students completely ruin a Homecoming at a small-town high school...

I grew up in a small town, and I remember what a huge thing it was, Homecoming.

So four high school kids make a racist "dance," and the entire Homecoming celebration and football game is canceled.

These four guys are going to be pariahs in the school from now on.

Just...stupid. Just plain stupid.

Clintonville cancels football, homecoming events in response to dance-off video

CLINTONVILLE, Wis. (WBAY) - All Friday Homecoming events have been canceled in the Clintonville Public School District in response to a dance-off video that has been criticized as offensive to Native Americans.

The Homecoming football game and Saturday's homecoming dance are among the canceled events.
Superintendent David C. Dyb cites "student safety concerns" for canceling the school dance. He says that will be rescheduled.

Dyb made the announcement in response to furor over the video that shows students at the "Homecoming dance-off" appearing to take part in a mock tribal dance set to Native drumming.

Wonder if they'd think such a dance was clever and funny.
