Words that don't usually go together: '88 yr old' & 'flash mob.' Still, this is awesome. http://t.co/wzaCZEkcTi

"That's a flash mob, grandpa," Bush Hager could be seen explaining to a visibly bewildered Bush, whose mouth hung… http://t.co/9zpgI7Dw4F

Adorable.
Finishing up what he thought was an orthodox photo op March 1 at the Bush School of Government and Public Service at the College Station, Texas, university, the 88-year-old Bush – joined by his wife, former first lady Barbara Bush, and his granddaughter, Bush 43’s daughter Jenna Bush Hager – was besieged by several dozen students spontaneously bursting into a choreographed rendition of Brooks & Dunn’s “Boot Scootin’ Boogie.”
“That’s a flash mob, grandpa,” Bush Hager could be seen explaining to a visibly bewildered Bush, whose mouth hung agape.
Organized by Flash Mob America, the three-minute performance was a classic nod to country: A spirited “yeehaw!” kicked off the ordeal, followed by knee-slapping and mime-lassoing. Students and the dean rewrote the lyrics for the chorus to say, “the Bushwhacker Boogie,” a shout-out to the school body’s nickname.
Flash Mob America posted more about it on its Twitter feed.
This morning on the @todayshow, we helped @JennaBushHager honor her grandfather, President George H. W. Bush:http://t.co/wwr8WL4De6
