The “Git Up” Dance Challenge galloped onto the internet in 2019 the moment country-rapper Blanco Brown dropped his twangy ear-worm, “The Git Up.” With Brown’s lyrics calling out cues—“slide to the left, slide to the right,” “do the two-step, cowboy boogie”—millions of would-be cowpokes lined up in living rooms and parking lots to give the routine a whirl.
What began as a fun social-media trend quickly snowballed. Big names like Jimmy Fallon, Ciara, and even the Harlem Globetrotters posted their own versions, while Brown released a step-by-step tutorial—and later, a remix featuring country chart-topper Thomas Rhett—to keep the boot-scootin’ buzz alive.
Yet none of those viral clips prepared the internet for a four-legged showstopper. In a now-legendary video, one rancher begins the dance… only for his horse to trot in, bob its head, and flawlessly match every beat. The rider holds his own, sure—but the horse’s rhythm is pure scene-stealer, turning a simple challenge into an unforgettable barnyard spectacle.
