There is nobody in the National Football League that has better celebrations than the Minnesota Vikings.
And they followed up their viral White Chicks dance with one that surely put a smile on everyone's face.
Who remembers the Disney Channel original movie Camp Rock?
After Vikings safety Theo Jackson came away with a game-sealing interception against the Seattle Seahawks with 55 seconds remaining in the game, the defense gathered in the end zone and celebrated in the perfect way.
Minnesota recreated the dance from the second movie when the counselors from Camp Rock stormed into Camp Star to challenge them to a competition called 'The Final Jam.'
And afterwards, Camryn Bynum even provided a behind-the-scenes look at the preparation this took.
At the beginning of December, Bynum was also involved in another dancing celebration.
After intercepting Atlanta Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins, Josh Metellus ran down to the end zone to celebrate. He was joined by Bynum, and the two safeties decided to recreate the famous dance from the 2004 movie "White Chicks."
And after this one, Bynum opened up about how it all came together.
"We watched it a million times. The mental reps is everything. Just like watching film. You watch it, then it’s ‘all right, Josh, we gotta master it.’ Took 30 minutes one day, just to master it. Now it’s locked in. Now we know. So before every game we walk through it. But we have to do it real subtly. We don’t want anybody else to see it. We’ve got to just work our steps and talk through it, ‘this and this next, do this, all right, now we’re done, turn up.’ We did one day of like a 30-minute rehearsal, like grinding. Other than that, it was just all watching film. We got it locked in. It’s muscle memory at this point. Because we know in the moment, we’ve got to make it big. We’ll be good," he told NFL Network's Tom Pelissero
With two games remaining in the regular season, along with the Vikings currently holding a spot in the playoffs, let's see what other celebrations they have up their sleeves.
