WASHINGTON, D.C. — A new congressman's son thought dad's swearing-in ceremony was a perfect time to "dab", but House Speaker Paul Ryan had none of it.
As Kansas republican Roger Marshall was being sworn in, his 17 year old son, standing between dad and the house speaker, tried to dab.
That's a dance move popularized by football star Cam Newton.
The house speaker, apparently unclear at what "dabbing" is, asked Marshall's son if he was alright. The teen answered from his elbow that he was, determined to hold his pose. Ryan asked again if he needed to sneeze before persistently asking him to put his arm down.
The new congressman was also not amused.
Marshall later wrote to Ryan on Twitter that he grounded his son for the stunt. Ryan replied that he still doesn't get what dabbing is.
