Prairie Chicken not Kentucky Fried

The origin story of the Chicken Dance talks about a warriors relationship to the prairie chicken. Hence, chicken dance. It is said the movements are inspired by the male prairie chicken during mating season.

Who, in your opinion does the best job imitating the prairie male prairie chicken in his dance style??? (does not include after hours *L)

I like watching the good dancers out in the Pacific NW... the ones who know what it's about... Like Frenchie Sijohn, Kermit Davis, Dave Browneagle, Guy Fox... etc.

He ain't a chicken dancer, but I love watching Leon Old Elk Stewart dance crow belt too... similar styles, but enough differences to matter...
