Strange action of patting all of your pockets trying to find your bank card/wallet, whilst walking towards an ATM. Looks like a bad version of the Macarena.

The moves a person makes while waiting in an airport security checkpoint as they are checking all of their pockets for metal items.
If you don't do the airport macarena, the metal detectors will beep and you will be asked to check your pockets again.

The steps of being frisked and cuffed, set to the back-beat of the Macarena:
1st step; left hand on police cruiser hood. 2nd step; right hand on police cruiser hood. 3rd step; leg spread shoudler-width apart. 4th step; left hand on back of head. 5th step; right hand on back of head. 6th step; back of left hand on small of back. 7th step; right hand on small of back. 8th step; crouch down and slide over.

"My buddy was walking back from the gas station, he just bought a pack of smokes when the cops lit him up. Apparently he 'looked like someone they were looking for', and when he tried to argue that he wasn't even that cat? They had him doing the Detroit Macarena while they tossed his wallet. Bunch of pigs."

Looking like a line dancer at a wedding, the act of a carpenter looking for a pencil, putting his/her hands behind both ears, then both shirt pockets, then both front pants pockets, then both back pockets, then spinning in a circle looking on the floor, scratch top of head...repeat.

when you see a midget, it is common courtesy to publicly identify the said midget, either verbally or physically, and subsequently perform the macarena. failure to do so will result in your spouse fornicating with a beloved relative.
ex: yo, is that kid a midget? *points at the midget* i have to do the midget macarena now, or else my bf might cheat on me with my brother!

oh damn, gotta pull into this gas station, and use its dirty bathroom... it's a Macarena dump again...

the act of checking you side and then back pockets in search of your phone usually causing you to accidently perform a portion of the macarena.
