But the good people of Jackson appear to be going about their daily business with little notice paid to the newfound (and growing) online attention of a swarm of strangers. That obliviousness held up until one evening this week, when a way-too-cool sheriff decided to give the observing public a little something to talk about. In a short clip of the livestream posted to YouTube on Wednesday with 9,419 hits, a viewer captured the empty, darkened streets as a lone sheriff’s SUV slides through the intersection and exits the frame. But then! The car reverses back onto the scene, and out of the driver’s door hops a uniformed officer, who immediately hits [the Dab.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mWulmBUNnHk) (The Dab is a viral dance move popularized by various rappers, celebrities, and[ Cool Teens™](http://time.com/4350445/national-spelling-bee-2016-dab-running-man-challenge/?iid=sr-link1) in the vein of [the Whip or the Nae Nae](http://time.com/4023921/whip-and-nae-nae-riley-stephen-curry/?iid=sr-link9).) And just as casually as it started, he jumps back in his car, gives a wave, and glides off into the night, ready to continue enforcing the law of the Tetons. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4484632/jackson-hole-livestream-sheriff-dab/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4484632/jackson-hole-livestream-sheriff-dab/"},"headline":"Watch a Very Hip Sheriff Casually Hit the Dab on the Viral Jackson Hole Livestream","datePublished":"2016-09-08T21:28:25.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:36:20.893Z","description":"The internet loves it","url":"https://time.com/4484632/jackson-hole-livestream-sheriff-dab/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Internet","viral"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltd2a1d7aad8eb8e74/6988a51ccd1bba239f7023a6/jackson-hole.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Raisa Bruner","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/raisa-bruner/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltd2a1d7aad8eb8e74/6988a51ccd1bba239f7023a6/jackson-hole.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"US-PARKS-GRAND TETON NATIONAL PARK","caption":"US-PARKS-GRAND TETON NATIONAL PARK","creditText":"Karen Bleier—Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4484632/jackson-hole-livestream-sheriff-dab/","name":"Watch a Very Hip Sheriff Casually Hit the Dab on the Viral Jackson Hole Livestream"}}]}] ```
