Television shows now days seem to cover almost every aspect of life but the ones that seem to capture most viewers attention are the competition shows like American Idol, America’s Got Talent, The Sing Off and So You Think You Can Dance. Tonight starting at 9pm the University of Wyoming will be doing their own version of “So You Think You Can Dance.” It will take place at UW’s Education Auditorium.

In recent years several different kinds of dance have made their way to the forefront of pop-culture. Many attribute the rise of break dancing to the modern styles of popping, crumping and the even more exciting freestyle dance offs that encompass almost every kind of dance imaginable. The popular tv show Dancing With The Stars has even helped ballroom dancing make a prominent rise in popularity.

Tonight in the Education Auditorium UW students will get a chance to strut their stuff! The free Friday Night Fever event gives students  an opportunity to compete in front of an audience and judges. The top entry in each category will even win $500! There are three different categories students can enter to compete in. They categories are  single, couple or group. Registration is open at the Campus Activities Center office in the lower level of the Wyoming Union. You can also register online by clicking here!
