The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It is often synonymous with the lindy hop dance but might include elements of the jive, east coast swing, collegiate shag, charleston, balboa and other swing dances.
- Swing dancing originated in the African-American communities of New York City in the early 20th century.
- Many nightclubs had a whites-only or blacks-only policy due to racial segregation, however the Savoy Ballroom in Harlem had a no-discrimination policy which allowed whites and blacks to dance together and it was there that the Lindy Hop dance flourished, started by dancers such as George Snowden and Frank Manning.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Jitterbug article was read about 53,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 61 and blocks with 55: each hit it takes is cut by 22 %.
