SHARE Obama likes his chances in 'dance-off' with UConn player

President Barack Obama’s ‘dance-off’ with UConn basketball star Stefanie Dolson is looking a bit easier, especially after she stumbled on stage.

The team was on hand Monday to celebrate its NCAA title, and oddly, it was Dolson, who challenged Obama to a dance-off if UConn won a second consecutive title, who couldn’t stay on her feet.

Obama did a little trash talking during the event, and before Dolson took the quick exit off the stage.

Stefanie, I did not forget that you challenged me to a dance-off last year, Obama said. It is going to happen. Don’t think that you’re going to beat me on that, he said. I also appreciate that you told the world about it after the title game. I have daughters in junior high and high school, and for their sake, I will not be dancing too much while the cameras are around.

And then this happened later:
