“Principal’s Unexpected Dance with Mascot Sparks Controversy: Father’s Shocking Reaction Revealed!”
In a video taken last Friday (August 16), Robert Nunes seemed to recreate a lapdance with the school’s mascot in front of a crowd of students at the gym.
First, the mascot seductively approaches Nunes and shakes its hips, to which he fires off a canon full of confetti. Then, Nunes and the mascot switch places, and he slides his hands down the unknown person’s body.

The rally reportedly had a Vegas theme. After the dance, Nunes takes the microphone and shouts, “What happens at Buhach stays in Buhach!”
Buhach Colony High School is located in Atwater, 120 miles (193 kilometers) east of San Francisco.
Ryan Attebery, the father of a 14-year-old freshman at the school, shared his son’s video on his Facebook account.
“Am I a square, or was this weird AF for a principal to do?” he captioned the post.
It’s unclear if the individual wearing the costume was a faculty member or a student.
