My Grandma used to make us watch Lawrence Welk with her all the time I just was looking for something Lawrence Welk thinking of my Grandmother today. This is absolutely hilarious I laughed so so so so so so so so so so so so so so hard
I knew it was rigged as soon as she could dance with Bobby. Lol because Mr. Welk was an excellent dancer. My one sorrow is that i was born 1995, 3 years after he passed. I would have LOVED to known and danced with him, at least once.
Correct.. it was invented one year at the Lake Tahoe show, when it really DID happen to a dancer.. and LW thought it was so funny, he started to use it whenever they went on the road, and a few times on his show (from his book Ah one Ah two).
Mr. Welk, ever since your passing more than 20 years ago, the music world has never been the same. In fact, it has since taken an irrevocable turn for the worse. Mr. Welk, we miss you and your music more than we ever knew before.
This chick is sitting on GO. No wonder LW couldn’t keep up. I’ve read that this was a bit they did when they went in the road, but to the live audience and people watching at home it looked spontaneous and made for a huge laugh and memorable tv moment.
It's like so many things in entertainment. Dancing, ice skating, etc. Most often, it takes a person who's really good at it to do it badly, and make it look funny.
I watched the whole thing with my mother when it first aired many years ago. It was real. I felt so embarrassed for her in front of the camera and all those people laughing at her.
HIm that is a man DELANEY BABE BORDIAN ARISTIDE BROCHKERT ERDMAN KNOW AS THE DECKER MICHIGAN VAGRANT RAIDERS THEY ARE SO DESPERATE THEY EXECUTED 9408 PERSONS LAST YEAR TO PRETEND THEY ARE BRITISH GENTRY! !!!! !LOL
Great fun, but I'd bet anything it was staged. When she first starts dancing with Lawrence, she totally doesn't look like she knows what she's doing. Then, when she's dancing with Bobby, she suddenly is dancing like a pro with fancy moves. It then looks like she's sticking her head out in the twirl to make the wig fall off. If this had been a real person out of the audience, Lawrence and Bobby would have known it was a mortifying embarrassment for her, and I don't think they would have made as much of a joke out of it. It had to have been planned.

I don't know about that last part. Welk sent the tempo slower than before but as soon as they started dancing "UP" went the tempo Did Welk fire anyone or was that part of the act?
fuck this referenced on the rugrats before a year later while them children of get the picture nickelodeon with mike o malley were still acting as the beast slayer with the man the universal champion seth rollins for the pitbull serge sgt craig pitman in the wcw from 1995 to 1997 though god damn

I had never seen it happen before lol

No need to miss anything. The show has continued on PBS. 60 years +
Thank god for PBS. TV sucks.
Saw LW in person in Greensboro NC. This "gag" brought the house down!!!

Boy,Id Like To Have That Girl As My Schoolteacher
Some fancy footwork with Bobby for someone randomly chosen

Great acting and dancing!!

Lawrence Welk would NEVER have humiliated anyone like that. This was staged, scripted, and rehearsed. It made for good television, bback in the day.

@@onemercilessming1342 Absolutely. It was a nice and entertaining gag!
Her wig fell off as soon as she tipped her head back. Her wig wasn’t pinned on. It was planned.
What a stud muffin Lawrence was
I would like to see the entire polka segment with all the people and Bob Gerlik the one who danced with cissy real well. Thanks.
You wanna danz wid me? Ahh wunnerful ahh runnerful ... anuh wunnerful azz we polga danz !
A One-anna Two-anna : )
And-a now-a, on-a wid-a da show-a...
You forgot the bubbles.Love this show.
That was funny!
Lawrence is good musician
So funny. Love it
"...AND I'M DOONEEESE!"
I want to say that(
I just about lost urine behind that!
Thought she was going to say "from the Finger Lakes"
This is hilarious - poor woman!!!
You mean poor Lawrence!!
Mr. Welk told me that I was one of the few Americans who ever said his name right. VEL-G!! Not WELK.
You mean Velk?
Rip welk
be it staged or real, it was great fun to watch
It was real, I watched the entire show before
The whole scene is so over-the-top that it’s hard to believe it’s real. But, I guess that it is.
Even after all these years and a bad video it was funny. Just discovered this show and Myron Floren, I wished it had come to the UK. 😍

Yes...staged to perfection...@@LeeBlaske
She was real..

Was she part of the show?
It's really hard to tell for sure. She could have been a shill but if so, VERY well done.
😀
That's funny
that cant be for real
During which show was this recorded?
Lawrence Welk Show. Not sure of the year, probably in the 60s.
A piece of shtick worthy of Conan O'Brien!
that was funny, the girl was over enthusiastic.. omg her wig came off on no !
i think that's a man.
lool
