It wouldn’t be a running man challenge if Atlanta wasn’t involved.
The Atlanta Police Department is the latest to do the viral Running Man Challenge, accepting the City of Monroe Police Department's duel.
The Gwinnett County District Attorney's Office joined the dance craze June 2, and had citizens wondering if tax money was used to create the five-minute video.
Noise complaints are the last thing on officers’ minds as the entire squad joined in the running man challenge, spurred by two Maryland basketball players dancing to the 1996 hit “My Boo” by Ghost Town DJ’s.
The track was featured on Atlanta-based producer Jermaine Dupri's "So So Def Bass All-Stars" album. The song recently reached No. 27 on the Billboard Hot 100 after the challenge videos went viral.
The six-minute video features Atlanta radio hosts Rickey Smiley and SiMan Baby and recording artists Big Boi and Dupri, who appropriately reminds viewers: “This is Atlanta, ain’t no challenge.”
See the star-studded video and dare to compare it against the Monroe Police Department’s. Their Batman-theme challenge was posted May 20.
