UPDATED: Dancing with the Woz Liveblog Pt. 3

9:22 pm, March 23rd, 2009, Pete Mortensen

UPDATE: Woz has made it through to round three without even having to be part of a dance-off! He wasn’t in the group of the worst two dance couples! Can you smell what the Woz is cookin’?

Quote: “That was the most incredible surprise. I was setting myself up to be so happy doing my dance again. When that came, my world turned in an instant…I was crying. I still have tears a little.”

We’re back! Woz is going on, and he pulled a hamstring! This is going to be good!

9:22 p.m. Woz, sporting a fauxhawk, is attempting a samba. He can barely walk.

9:23 p.m. As my wife notes, this is the only time he hasn’t had a feather boa.

9:24 p.m. Um. Woz just did the worm. Yeah, that worm. That was amazing.

9:24 p.m. The female judge is dissing on his worm. “You’re so cute, but the novelty is wearing thin.” Also: “You’re like the uncle at the party!”

9:25 p.m. Cranky old British man: “You’re meant to be killing the dance, but the dance is killing you.”

9:26 p.m. Bruno: “Steve, this was the worst samba I have seen in my whole life!”

9:26 p.m. Wozdom: “One thing I learned is that if you mix a samba with a little Smirnoff, you’ll end up in the hospital!” Smirnoff is the last name of his partner.

9:27 p.m. Woz got 10 points. That’s the lowest he’s gotten ever. Ouch. Woz remains committed to bringing his brand of entertainment to America.

9:30 p.m. And we’re outta here!
