Viral video shows O’Rourke air-drumming to the Who’s ‘Baba O’Riley’ after Cruz debate

A video of Texas Rep. Beto O’Rourke (D) air-drumming to the Who’s “Baba O’Riley” shortly after his debate with Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) on Friday night is making the rounds on social media.

“This may be the best song ever written,” O’Rourke said of the Who’s 1971 track while waiting in a drive-thru line at a local Whataburger.

The video, posted online late Friday night, garnered over 205,000 views on Facebook as of Saturday afternoon. 

The video comes as the three-term congressman attempts to gain ground in his quest to unseat Cruz.  

Though Texas hasn’t elected a Democrat to the Senate in decades, a few polls have pointed to a narrowing margin between both candidates. 

A recent Reuters–Ipsos–University of Virginia Center for Politics poll released on Wednesday found that O’Rourke holds a 2-point lead over the incumbent Republican.

The video also comes a month after another video went viral showing O’Rourke skateboarding at a local Whataburger.
