Usain Bolt’s Rio Olympics Press Conference Turns Into Huge Dance Party

Usain Bolt is going out in style.

What started as a press conference ended as a party Monday when Bolt took the stage at the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro. This will mark the final Olympics for the Jamaican sprinter, who joked, danced and entertained his way through one of the wild press conferences you’ll ever see.

Bolt played to the crowd of reporters from the second he emerged Monday, telling them they needed to make more noise. Many obliged.

One journalist even serenaded Bolt with a unique song.

Another won a souvenir.

But things really picked up when Bolt busted some moves alongside some samba dancers.

None of this should come as a surprise given Bolt’s larger-than-life personality. In many ways, it was a perfect send-off, even if it was incredibly strange.
