In the wake of last week’s historic Supreme Court decision, Sunday’s Pride festivities were especially jubilant. Joining in the celebration was everyone’s new favorite New York City police officer, who took a dance break with Aaron Santis, a player from the Big Apple Softball League.
Paige Ponzeka, the fellow reveler who captured the two on video, reported that the cop initially was reluctant when Santis started to dance with him. “[He] was standing there all stoic,” she said. But before long, the officer got into the spirit, showing off some stellar dance moves that enthralled the crowd and the Internet alike.
Alas, all dances must end. But before the march moved on, Santis left his dance partner with a Big Apple Softball League sticker — reading “I’d Hit That,” ingeniously — and a kiss on the cheek.
