York student performs Gangnam Style dance for Mayor Rob Ford

TORONTO – Gangnam Style, meet mayor Rob Ford. 

That was the scene at a recent York University football game as 20-year-old Dave Kim clad in a black suit and sunglasses danced and hopped around the mayor as he stood on the sidelines.

The mayor did not participate in the growing international dance trend.

Kim then danced over to a group of cheerleaders for a rousing finish as they lifted him up.
