SYRACUSE -- Dozens of dancers surprised the crowd with a flash mob Friday afternoon in downtown Syracuse.

At 12:30pm, more than 60 people, including 25 dancers from the Syracuse City Ballet, danced to the 1980's hit "Walk the Dinosaur" in front of the MOST. The executive director of the MOST says the music choice was perfect to help promote the upcoming Dinomania traveling exhibit.

Dancers got together through social media networks, email, and word of mouth. They learned the dance moves and had some time to practice before the actual event.
