Andrew Gawin joined other spectators at Penn State's McCoy Natatorium for the local YMCA state swim meet. Gawin was there to watch his sister, Allison Gawin. Gawin was proud of his sibling for doing well in her meet but, more excited about the "Harlem Shake" dance which interrupted the closing ceremonies. The swimmers at the meet stood on the side of the main pool and when the music started playing all joined in to dance.
