'Harlem Shake' Miami Videos: Does Pepe Billete Do It Best?

Every city in America has done the viral dance craze 'Harlem Shake' by now -- but how many have filmed it led by a Cuban puppet?

Pepe Billete -- Miami's own felt-covered, cigar-chomping, Spanglish-speaking puppet uncle -- called his pals to AmericanAirlines Arena Sunday afternoon to film a 305 version of the irrepressible meme, which naturally was renamed the "Haslem Shake" for extra Dade flavor.

In the crowd: booty bass maestro Otto Von Schirach, a Cleopatra wig, a kid in a really fabulous cat t-shirt (call us!), and about 200 Heat fans going nuts. In other words, it looked like a cross between a pre-game crowd, a night at Ultra Music Festival, and any random Tuesday on Biscayne Boulevard.

But did Billete do it best? We've compiled a handful of the best Miami versions of the Harlem Shake, including clips from a local rowing club, high school chorus, the LIV nightclub offices, kids in Hialeah, the University of Miami, and even those Canadian sisters filmed dancing in the Miami Beach Police offices.
