Michael Crabtree is a pretty cool guy that catches footballs for the San Francisco 49ers. However, we’re not a website that covers sports, and that’s not why we’re talking about it. We’re talking about him because, on November 8th, Ubisoft announced a partnership with the wide receiver and released a video offering a behind-the-scenes look at the creation of Michael’s new signature dance move, inspired by the new video game, The Hip Hop Dance Experience.
[quote]”Back in the day, I remember watching guys like Deion Sanders and Terrell Owens score touchdowns and being just as excited to watch their celebration dances as I was to see them score,” Michael Crabtree said. “I’m hyped to finally have my own signature move that blends my southern Texas roots with some of that San Francisco Bay Area flavor.”[/quote]
You see, each time Michael performs his touchdown dance on the field, Ubisoft and The Hip Hop Dance Experience will make a charitable donation to the Boys & Girls Club.
In addition, for those fans that are feeling a bit creative, they can help Michael name his dance move by tweeting their ideas to his Twitter handle: @KingCrab15. Michael will select the best suggestion and fans can see it in action whenever he reaches the end zone this season.
As it turns out, Michael is one of a few professional football players, joining All-Pros LeSean McCoy and Von Miller, who have drawn inspiration from The Hip Hop Dance Experience for their on-field celebrations this season.
