The Hamster Dance is the first thing I can think of, but apparently that was 1998 so there was probably something before that. https://t.co/cZNCQTiwfp

It has to be the Star Wars kid video and it’s crazy to think about because this was in the early days of the internet and pre-YouTube. I mean, it was first shown to me on a CD-ROM!! But somehow it was still a massive viral sensation. https://t.co/hLqRT53dHi
