Game 4

The Dance Everybody Tried

In the Living Room

The game's question

Feel free to twist in your chair while you read—the name may come with the rhythm.

Shoes off, the rug pushed back, a record on the turntable—and the whole room twisting side to side. “The Twist” reached No. 1 on September 19, 1960. Then, on January 13, 1962, it was No. 1 all over again. It was the dance everybody tried at least once. Circle the singer’s name together.

  • Neil Sedaka
  • Chubby Checker
  • Bobby Vinton
Need a hint?

Twist a little in your chair, side to side. Then think of a board game with red and black pieces: his last name sounds just like it.

See the answer

Answer: Chubby Checker—No. 1 in 1960, and again in 1962.

Why this game : Everybody tried this dance, and everybody has a story about it: who danced best, where it was, and who laughed hardest.
