LOL Why?

Polkaing is fun. (Yes, I'm German and live in Wi)

[mskitkat]

There was polka at my wedding. I insisted on it. It's so much fun to get trashed and whirl around.

[runforrest]

I love the polka! I also did Polish dancing as a kid. We have numerous polkas at our family weddings.

[agnes]

I've met polka. I think she'd be pretty creeped out if I watched her, though.

[agnes]

We don't have any channels that show polka dancing, that I know of.

Unless I'm watching Ground Hog Day

[agnes]

Oh and I know a polka song. Sang it in 7th grade

Strike up the music the band has begun the Pensylvannia polka! (Clap clap clap)

Lol!  I don't know how to polka.  But next time we gtg, you sing your 7th grade polka song, and you can watch me bust a move.

I totes wished I could watch people polka. Hell I would settle for a polka festival but instead I am greeted with mariachis which oddly kind of fill the desire to polka. If it makes any difference I am half mexican and half polish. I miss polka music and think I will go ask the mister to play a polka record now.

For you.

[mrsukyankee]

I grew up in NEPA - it was not only on TV but you could also see it in person on a regular basis. Sigh.

[chickadee77]

Another German/Polish WI girl signing in! I haven't polka-ed in forever, but my dad and his girlfriend go every weekend without fail - they even plan their travels around if Stephanie or whoever the the big polka band is now is playing.

Also, be jealous. I met Eddie Blazonczyk in person when I was, like, six. It was the only time I ever saw my dad star-struck, lol.

Sorry, got into some shenanigans last night. You meant you know how to polka, not that you know where I've seen it (which would have been cool). I used to get dragged to polka festivals as a kid and it would've been cool to commiserate with someone on that.

Lol - have you been to the mother of all polka festivals, Pulaski Polka Days? Or did you do the church picnic circuit? And you know how there's always the one elderly couple dancing side-by-sidenaround the edge of the floor? 

I hated going as a kid, but can laugh as an adult.

[winnied]

LOL not on TV. We did have the occasional polka song at the high school dances, though.

[sillygoosegirl]

No, I don't think so. I love polka. I get up and dance when there is polka. I fell in love with DH dancing the polka. It was our first dance (not at our wedding, but it was IRL).

The one we went to every summer was called "Polkabration". The elderly couple that stands out to me the most showed up every year wearing these elaborately beaded Polish eagle jackets. Like you, I hated it as a kid but looking back it's all pretty funny.

My aunt goes to "Polkamotion Down the Ocean" each year. Polka on the beach!
