WATCH: Dancing Pee-Wee Football Players Whip, Nae Nae on the Field

The Milford Mighty Mites were supposed to play a scrimmage at halftime of the varsity game last week, but something else happened.


In the brief time the Milford Mighty Mites were given to play a scrimmage game during halftime of Friday’s Milford High School - Oliver Ames football matchup, the game had little to do with winning and losing for the young players. It was about how well they could whip and nae nae.

Not all the kids were concerned with dancing through. A little past the one-minute mark, the center patiently waits to snap the ball while his teammates “nae nae” around him. Shorly before, No. 88 seems really gets down.

After two minutes of shenanigans, the music was killed, allowing the team to get back to focusing on football before the varsity teams returned for the second half.
