PANCOCOJAMS EDITOR'S NOTE
While surfing YouTube I happened upon a 2020 video of Tio Chocko and friends welcoming in the new year. After watching that video, and reading many of its discussion thread comments, I learned about Tio Chocko's 2019 welcoming the new year video. I then decided to showcase these videos on pancocojams so that those who weren't in the know would be aware of this new, fun tradition of watching "Tio Chocko" ("Uncle Chocolate"?) and his friends dance to an old school record to welcome in the new year.

Tio Chocko and his friends are middle aged Black cowboys from Texas (USA) who dance to records in old school, comedic ways. A number of African American commenters write that the way that Uncle Chocko and his friends dance remind them of the ways their father and uncles "get down" at family barbecues and other gatherings.

Additional Uncle Chocko comic dance videos of Uncle Chocko and his friends can be found on YouTube.
